Crystal Palace are weighing up the future of on-loan forward Jean-Philippe Mateta, according to TEAMtalk.
Their report on Wednesday led to a number of Eagles fans sharing their thoughts on social media.
TEAMtalk claim that Patrick Vieira is considering ending Mateta’s loan early as he has other targets lined up.
The 24-year-old made the move to Selhurst Park back in January on an 18-month loan with the option to buy next summer.
Mateta, on £32,000-a-week with parent club Mainz, has scored just once in his seven competitive games as a Palace player.
Vieira has been busy when it comes to signings this summer but is yet to bring in a striker, and it appears as if Mateta’s future in London is up in the air.
Palace fans react
Both @cpfc_xtra and @CPFCtransfersHQ shared TEAMtalk’s claim regarding Mateta on Twitter on Wednesday.
This is what these Palace fans had to say in reply, with many seemingly wanting the Frenchman to stay.
