Crystal Palace and Leeds United are thought to be interested in Arsenal midfielder Ainsley Maitland-Niles ahead of the summer window.
And, as to be expected, plenty of Palace fans have been giving their thoughts to the club’s reported interest in the 23-year-old on social media.
The Mirror claim that Palace are the latest club to show an interest in Maitland-Niles, who has impressed out on loan at West Brom in recent months.

He’s made nine appearances for the Baggies, with Sam Allardyce’s side winning three, drawing three and losing three with the Arsenal man in the starting line-up.
Leeds have been watching developments closely, with the report suggesting the Gunners may decide to cash in on the versatile ace over the coming months.
Maitland-Niles, on £48,000-a-week, still has over two years remaining on his Emirates deal and is valued at £16.2m by Transfermarkt.
