Tony Pulis to be given transfer funds after Aston Villa win?

Crystal Palace manager Tony Pulis will be able to spend money in the January transfer window after steering the Eagles to 17th in the Premier League, according to a report.

The Mirror claims that the 1-0 win against Aston Villa, which took Palace to 16 points, triggered an agreement that will now see Pulis splash the cash next month.

Sporting director Iain Moody has reportedly earmarked Celtic midfielder Joe Ledley as a possible signing and has been to watch Lyon striker Bafetimbi Gomis.

Bournemouth players Matt Ritchie and Steve Cook could also make moves to Selhurst Park.
