CRYSTAL Palace are rumoured to be keen on a £15million move for Benik Afobe.

DR Congo star Afobe has scored 11 goals in 60 appearances since joining Cherries from Wolves in January 2016.

And The Sun reports Palace are considering a big-money bid for the former England under-21 international in the new year.

Afobe has started four Premier League games this season, his only goal of the campaign coming in the 3-1 Carabao Cup fourth-round win over Middlesbrough at Vitality Stadium.

Meanwhile, Cherries are reportedly ready to allow Lewis Grabban to leave permanently in January.

The 29-year-old striker is in a rich vein of form for loan club Sunderland and has scored 10 goals in 16 appearances this season.

Although Grabban is due to remain with the Black Cats for the rest of the campaign, TEAMtalk claims Cherries have a recall clause in January.

TEAMtalk reports “a host of clubs” have contacted the Dorset outfit over the frontman’s services and says Wolves and Fulham “are ready to make moves”.
