Crystal Palace looking to sign Sassuolo forward Khouma Babacar?

Crystal Palace have reportedly identified Sassuolo forward Khouma Babacar as a potential summer signing.

As it stands, Palace are yet to bring in any new outfield players this summer, with only goalkeeper Vicente Guaita arriving from Getafe.

However, according to The Mirror, the Eagles are looking to strengthen their attacking ranks with the addition of Babacar, despite the striker having only joined Sassuolo earlier this month.

The Senegal international spent the second half of last season with the Serie A outfit, scoring twice in 13 appearances, and a permanent deal has been secured with Fiorentina.

Sassuolo, however, have allegedly indicated that they are willing to make a quick profit on the 25-year-old, who could cost Palace in the region of £12m.
