Crystal Palace<\/a>‘s \u00a350m move for Wolves<\/a> striker Jorgen Strand Larsen is in the balance after the Eagles communicated their intention to walk away from the deal.<\/p>\n

The two Premier League clubs had agreed a deal<\/a> in principle for 25-year-old Strand Larsen to move to Selhurst Park.<\/p>\n

That was subject to Palace tabling a written formal offer for the Norway forward, which Wolves<\/a> would have accepted.<\/p>\n

However, that offer, which was expected to arrive on Thursday, is yet to be received – and sources indicate Wolves<\/a> have been informed Palace no longer want to proceed with the deal.<\/p>\n

It remains to be seen whether the development is a negotiating tactic with a view to agreeing a lower fee.<\/p>\n

If the Strand Larsen move falls through, it could have an impact on Jean-Philippe Mateta’s anticipated exit from Selhurst Park before Monday’s transfer deadline.<\/p>\n

The 28-year-old France forward has told Palace he wants to leave this month, with the Eagles increasingly open to sanctioning his departure.<\/p>\n

Nottingham Forest<\/a> have already seen a \u00a335m offer rejected by Palace and are set to accelerate their efforts to sign Mateta in the coming days – while Juventus and AC Milan are among other clubs to have shown a concrete interest in the striker.<\/p>\n

Mateta is understood to want to play Champions League football, but is open to a move to the City Ground.<\/p>\n

Palace want a replacement before sanctioning Mateta’s exit – and are set to sign versatile attacker Evann Guessand on loan from Aston Villa<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, it is unclear whether the Eagles want a new recognised centre-forward through the door before allowing Mateta to leave.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Forest have bid \u00a320m for Brighton midfielder Yasin Ayari<\/a>, although the offer is expected to be rejected.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Crystal Palace‘s \u00a350m move for Wolves striker Jorgen Strand Larsen is in the balance after the Eagles communicated…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":270673,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[61,60,112],"class_list":{"0":"post-270672","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-sports","8":"tag-ie","9":"tag-ireland","10":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/270672","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=270672"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/270672\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/270673"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=270672"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=270672"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=270672"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
