# Crystal Palace: Fans react to Weston McKennie links

**Crystal Palace and Aston Villa have joined Tottenham in the race to sign Juventus midfielder Weston McKennie, according to [Tuttosport, cited by MondoBiancoNero.com](https://mondobianconero.com/tuttosport-anche-mckennie-guarda-la-premier-tottenham-insiste/?amp&__twitter_impression=true).**

And, as to be expected, a number of Palace supporters have been reacting to the update on social media.

Juventus are looking for cash offers for the [USA international](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/weston-mckennie/profil/spieler/332697), with Spurs [failing](https://mondobianconero.com/tuttosport-anche-mckennie-guarda-la-premier-tottenham-insiste/?amp&__twitter_impression=true) with a swap deal involving Tanguy Ndombele.

[Tuttosport, cited by MondoBiancoNero.com](https://mondobianconero.com/tuttosport-anche-mckennie-guarda-la-premier-tottenham-insiste/?amp&__twitter_impression=true), claim that Palace and Villa may have made bids for the 22-year-old, with the Italian giants looking to trim their midfield ranks in the final days of the window.

McKennie is valued at £22.5m by [Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/weston-mckennie/profil/spieler/332697) and [Fabrizio Romano](https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1430124672482414592) revealed earlier in the week that it would take an ‘important bid’ of more than €25/30m for his services.

The Eagles are after a [midfielder](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-9894977/Crystal-Palace-chasing-Hughes-midfielder-turns-new-deal-Watford.html) before the end of the month, so McKennie could be an alternative option to Watford’s [Will Hughes](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-9894977/Crystal-Palace-chasing-Hughes-midfielder-turns-new-deal-Watford.html).
