Manchester United are set to miss out on another transfer target after Crystal Palace reportedly won the race for Derby County youngster Malcolm Ebiowei.
The highly-rated 18-year-old caught the attention of Premier League clubs after breaking into the first team at the Championship side last season.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Ebiowei’s move to Palace is a done deal, and a Selhurst Park contract until 2027 will be signed this week.
A medical has already been completed and the London club are expected to announce the signing soon.
Reported target Christopher Nkunku signed a new contract with RB Leipzig on Thursday morning, ending speculation of the Frenchman’s potential move to Old Trafford.
Talks are ongoing for Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong, a saga that has gone on for weeks.
Ten Hag is said to be “desperate” to sell Anthony Martial and Eric Bailly to free up the funds needed to bring in key targets, such as De Jong and free agent Christian Eriksen.
The Old Trafford club have also been linked with Ajax winger Anthony and Porto’s Evanilson recently.
