Long-term Crystal Palace target Papa Alioune Ndiaye is set for a move to an unnamed Premier League club.

Ndiaye, who has Europa League experience, netted seven times last season.

The Senegal international has also been linked with West Ham and Everton in recent months.
Managerless Palace are yet to make a summer signing, and would have to splash £7m to land Ndiaye.
