Report: Tony Pulis wants Peter Crouch at Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace manager Tony Pulis is reportedly keen to be reunited with Stoke City forward Peter Crouch.

Pulis signed Crouch for the Potters in August 2011 when the 42-time England international arrived at the Britannia Stadium in a £10m move from Tottenham Hotspur.

Crouch has gone on to make 92 first-team appearances for the Staffordshire side, scoring 26 goals.

However, new Stoke boss Mark Hughes is understood to have targeted new recruits ahead of the upcoming January transfer window.

Hughes could be prepared to sell Crouch in the New Year and, according to The Mirror, Pulis is poised to offer his former club £3m for the 32-year-old.

Borussia Monchengladbach's Luuk de Jong is rumoured to be among Hughes's top targets.
