Yaya Sanogo heading to Crystal Palace on loan?

Arsenal winger Yaya Sanogo is reported to be close to a move to Crystal Palace on loan, despite being heavily linked with Hull City earlier this week.

The forward is currently struggling to get himself a regular place in the starting XI at Arsenal and will be heading out on loan for the remainder of the season, according to Arsene Wenger.

The Tigers have been frontrunners to take Sanogo on loan but the Frenchman is allegedly staying in London, with a move to Alan Pardew's Crystal Palace imminent, The Metro reports.

The 21-year-old has also been linked with a potential move back to France, but Wenger has said that he would 'prefer' Sanogo to go to an English Premier League club.
