A lot of Crystal Palace fans are discussing young prospect Josh Maja, after he has been linked with a move to the club as well as fellow Premier League side West Ham by The Sun.
The 21 year-old attacker, per Transfermarkt, reportedly wants to return to England and his current club Bordeaux value him at around £10 million. The Eagles and the Irons are now on alert, seeing whether they can make a move for the player. He has featured 31 times for the French side, scoring nine goals, per Transfermarkt.
The Englishman moved to the Ligue 1 side for a transfer valued at around £1.53 million from Sunderland, per Transfermarkt. Before his move, he was key to the side’s League One promotion push last season scoring 15 goals in 24 appearances.
However when he left the club’s performances started to drop and they eventually were not able to return to the Championship after losing in the playoff final to Charlton, via The Guardian.
Plenty of Palace fans have been reacting to the transfer link and it is fair to say that it has been a mixed response.
Here is what some had to say…

CPFC have been “linked” every decent attacker in the last few years but have signed none of them.

I can see it now. West Ham meet all of Bordeaux’s transfer demands. Crystal Palace offer a loan deal where we pay 40% of his wages. https://t.co/6ys8JQhjLA
