Crystal Palace have entered the race to sign Toulouse centre-back Jaydee Canvot as the Premier League side look to reinforce their defence before the transfer deadline.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Palace are now pushing for the 19-year-old, who has also attracted strong interest from Aston Villa.
Toulouse are open to selling their academy graduate but value him at around €20m (£18m).
Canvot signed his first professional deal in 2023 and made 18 Ligue 1 appearances last season, quickly earning a reputation as a powerful young defender.
With Marc Guehi’s future at Selhurst Park uncertain, Palace see Canvot as a long-term option.
Villa had a bid rejected last week, leaving the door open for Oliver Glasner’s side to strike late in the window.
