Celtic striker Odsonne Edouard is currently having a medical ahead of move to Crystal Palace.
The fee is believed to be around £14m, while it could rise to £18.5m, with Paris Saint-Germain due a significant sell-on clause in the deal.
Sky Sports News reported on Monday Palace turned their attention to Edouard after refusing to match Arsenal’s valuation for Eddie Nketiah.
Palace and Arsenal were far apart in their valuation for the 22-year-old, with the Eagles eager to sign a striker before Tuesday’s 11pm deadline.
Edouard, who has started the season with two goals in four Scottish Premiership games for Celtic, is now Palace’s preferred choice.
The 23-year-old came through the ranks at PSG’s academy, and moved to Celtic permanently in 2018 after a loan spell at the club.
His arrival at Palace would cap off a busy transfer window, with Marc Guehi, Joachim Andersen, Conor Gallagher, Michael Olise and Will Hughes all new additions to Patrick Vieira’s squad.
