English Premier League side Crystal Palace are reportedly set to turn their focus towards Celtic striker Odsonne Edouard.
As reported by reliable journalist David Ornstein of the Atheltic, after a move for Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah failed to pay off, they now look to be making a move for the Frenchman.

With Edouard now into the final 12 months of his contract, there has been much speculation surrounding his future with the club.
Some were likely surprised that he remains with the club going into the final day of the transfer window, tomorrow.
Speculation across the summer have suggested that the likes of Leicester City and Brighton have all had their eyes on the 24-year old, but none appeared to have made their move.
The links with Palace look to be the strongest reports yet, though, as new boss Patrick Viera attempts to add to his striker options for the season ahead.
Edouard has been a great servant of the club in his time here, producing many great moments that fans will saviour. However, it is probably the right time for both parties to move on.
This one looks like it could potentially go down to the wire tomorrow, so we will have to wait and see how it develops in the next 24 hours.
