Marouane Chamakh
Crystal Palace are close to resolving a deal for Arsenal forward Marouane Chamakh.
The Croydon Guardian understands that Chamakh is having his medical with the Eagles today.
It is understood the deal could be a permanent transfer rather than a loan as previously thought.
It should be completed before the Lazio friendly at Selhurst Park on Saturday.
The 29-year-old Morrocan, who has scored 14 times for Arsenal, has been heavily linked with Crystal Palace over the last fortnight.
He joined the Gunners from Bordeaux three years ago and had a loan spell at West Ham last season.
