Premier League outfit Crystal Palace are the latest team to show an interest in a Nigeria international.

The London club could join the chase for Club Brugge midfielder Raphael Onyedika.

Per The Sun, the club's recruitment chief Dougie Freedman was watching Onyedika at club level last week.

Palace are prepared to put in a bid for the 23-year-old before bigger clubs come sniffing.

Onyedika is seen as one of the top young players in the European game at present.

He has played 42 games in all competitions this term, scoring four goals and providing two assists.
