**Crystal Palace are interested in signing the West Ham United midfielder Soungoutou Magassa.**
The 22-year-old has impressed with the London club, and the Eagles are now looking to secure his signature, according to [Fabrice Hawkins](https://x.com/FabriceHawkins/status/2090824579698581994).
Soungoutou Magassa could join Crystal Palace
--------------------------------------------
Negotiations are underway between the two clubs, and a deal could be done quickly.
Crystal Palace need more physicality and defensive steel in the middle of the park, and Magassa could prove to be an excellent acquisition. He can operate as a defensive midfielder or a central defender. His versatility will be an added bonus for Crystal Palace.
The opportunity to join the Eagles will be exciting for the midfielder. It would be a step up in his career, and he would get to compete in Europe next season. He will not want to play in the second division of English football next season.
West Ham United have been relegated to the Championship, and they are likely to lose players this summer. It remains to be seen whether they can recoup a substantial amount of money from the 22-year-old’s departure.
