Crystal Palace are in the midst of an exciting summer transfer window, and now Dougie Freedman is attempting to add Kevin de Bruyne.
Crystal Palace have made two signings already, with a third on trial at the club in the form of Ryan Sessegnon, and now a fourth is being looked at.
Dougie Freedman is looking to further strengthen Glasner’s options by signing Aster Vranckx from Wolfsburg.
Palace are said to be pushing to sign Vranckx for what appears to be an £8 million fee this summer, and now Belgium have been knocked out of Euro 2024.
This signing is one that would excite many fans, as he is a one-time Golden Boy nominee who hasn’t quite reached his potential just yet.
Glasner could find the challenge of helping the £46k-a-week midfielder reach his full potential an interesting one. But comparisons to Kevin de Bruyne show exactly what he could be.
Upon his arrival at the Serie A club, Vranckx had a ‘6 things to know’ article written about him on the official club website.
Milan compared Vranckx’s style of play to that of his Belgian teammate De Bruyne, with both also wearing the Wolfsburg kit, which is another interesting similarity.
Vranckx has also been compared with Alex Witsel on the official Bundesliga website, which proves he is in good company, and Palace can be excited about his potential arrival.
But if he were to arrive at Selhurst Park, what can fans expect to get from a player of his quality?
