Palace looking at centre-back and midfielder

Latest from Your Site News' James Savundra:

Crystal Palace are prioritising signing a centre-back in this window following the departure of Marc Guehi, and are also open to a central midfielder, but adding a right wing-back now appears unlikely.

With Daniel Munoz very close to a returning following a knee injury, the improving availability of Palaces right-sided options means there is less urgency to strengthen that area of the pitch.

Your Site News previously reported that the Eagles had an interest in signing Zakaria El Ouahdi from Genk.

But as well as Munoz, Nathaniel Clyne and Rio Cardines are almost back from their own spells on the sidelines. The club also, unexpectedly, recalled Danny Imray from his loan spell at Blackpool.

The club have also been boosted by the return to fitness of centre-back Chadi Riad. However, the former Barcelona defender will not be rushed back to action having not featured for the first-team for more than a year.

Palace are still open to signing a central midfielder if the right market opportunity presents itself. 

Daichi Kamada who has excelled this season is still missing through injury and his contract is set to expire this summer.

Latest from Your Site News' Anton Toloui and Sam Blitz:

Everton Womens manager Brian Sorensen says Kelly Gago can only leave if a club pays her release clause.

Paris Saint-Germain are understood to have offered 50,000 for the France striker.

That is despite a release existing in her contract which is understood to be in the regio of 500,000.

Sorensen confirmed today that she wants to go.

But he said: "She has a release clause so any club that wants her can just pay that and she's free to go.

"But my understanding is like 10% of that release clause has been [offered] so I dont think shes going anywhere."

Latest from Your Site News' Anthony Joseph, James Savundra & Rob Dorsett:

Wrexham have entered the race to sign Angers forward Sidiki Cherif.

Its understood the Welsh club have opened talks with the French side to explore the conditions of a deal for the 19-year-old.

Crystal Palace continue to work on a deal for Cherif and remain confident of signing him, but will not overpay.

Your Site News reported on Tuesday that Palace's latest offer was for an initial loan that would include an obligation to buy if certain conditions were met.

The proposed package, which included a 2.6m loan fee, was worth 13.1m. 

It is understood that the Ligue 1 club are holding out for a full package worth around 17.4m. They appear to have come down on their initial demand of 21.8m.

If Wrexham were to table an official offer, it is likely to be a potential record fee for the club and possibly even the Championship.

Wrexham broke their transfer record for a third time last summer when they signed Nathan Broadhead from Ipswich Town in a deal worth 10m.
