Crystal Palace considering Lens youth player Souleymane Sagnan

According to Foot Mercato, Crystal Palace is very interested in making a move for the RC Lens youth player Souleymane Sagnan (18). 

The player has yet to make the transition to the first-team squad but his performances for Les Sang et Or in the Youth League have caught the attention of the London club, with the left-sided centre-back impressing in matches against Arsenal FC, Sevilla FC, and PSV. 

His current contract with the French club is coming to an end in 2025, and with this in mind, this could be enough to trigger the Premier League side to attempt to pick up the young talent before he makes his debut for Lens. 

If the defender were to leave Les Sang et Or he would be joining his brother Modibo Sagnan (24) in transitioning from their formative club, as his brother left in 2019 and now plies his trade in the Eredivisie with FC Utrecht.
