Crystal Palace are set to table a formal offer for Wolves striker Jorgen Strand Larsen. Sources have told BBC Sport that Palace's interest in the 25-year-old forward has intensified in the past 24 hours with a bid now expected from the Selhurst Park club. Wolves are open to selling the Norway international this month provided they get a fee close to the 55m they rejected from Newcastle for the striker during the summer transfer window.
Jorgen Strand Larsen has been linked with a move away from Wolves in recent weeks. According to Sky Sports, Leeds United, Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest have made enquiries to sign the player this month. In addition, multiple clubs from across Europe's top five leagues are also interested in the Norwegian International. However, the report claims that the player has not decided to continue in the Premier League, even if he leaves Wolves.
Chelsea reportedly made a late attempt to sign Wolves forward Jorgen Strand Larsen before the transfer deadline, according to journalist Simon Phillips. The Blues were looking for an additional striker to strengthen their attacking options and reached out to Strand Larsen's representatives in a bid to bring the 25-year-old to Stamford Bridge on deadline day. However, the deal did not materialise, and it appears the club was unsuccessful in their efforts.
