Bournemouth fail with bid for Crystal Palace's Dwight Gayle?

Crystal Palace have reportedly turned down a bid from newly-promoted Bournemouth for striker Dwight Gayle.

The 24-year-old has struggled to hold down a regular first-team place since Alan Pardew arrived as Eagles manager in January.

It is thought that the Cherries are prepared to pay £6m for Gayle. However, Palace believe that he is worth at least £10m, according to Clubcall.com.

The South London outfit paid £4.5m to sign him from Peterborough United in the summer of 2013.

Gayle has scored 18 goals in 54 appearances for Palace.
