Crystal Palace<\/a> transfer news has already begun with the Eagles considering signing Manchester United<\/a> defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka<\/a> and Lens midfielder Cheick Doucoure.<\/span><\/p>\n

Alex Howell of the BBC<\/a> has reported that the Eagles are keen on signing both players, although Wan-Bissaka is likely to only return to Selhurst Park on loan. <\/span><\/p>\n

Good First Season for Vieira<\/h3>\n

After a successful first season in charge of Palace, Patrick Vieira is keen to improve on his squad this summer.<\/span><\/p>\n

The former Arsenal<\/a> captain already brought in an array of youth last summer that helped the club reach the FA Cup<\/a> semi-final this season.<\/span><\/p>\n

Doucoure has been a mainstay at Lens since making his debut for the club in 2018 when he was just 18-years-old.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since then, the midfielder has played 128 times for the French side, scoring eight goals and assisting seven.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Malian international fits the criteria for Palace as he is just 22-years-old. Bringing energy and physicality to the midfield, he may be seen as a replacement for Conor Gallagher, who is set to return to Chelsea<\/a> at the end of the season. <\/span><\/p>\n

Potential Palace Return for Wan-Bissaka<\/h3>\n

Palace are also interested in bringing back former player Wan-Bissaka back to the club. The right-back left the club to join Manchester United in 2019 but has struggled to impress the Old Trafford faithful.<\/span><\/p>\n

After United\u2019s 4-0 loss to Liverpool<\/a>, manager Ralf Rangnick said that the Red Devils need a major rebuild.<\/span><\/p>\n

Wan-Bissaka is certainly one of those players that could be axed after several below-par performances and incoming head coach Erik ten Hag<\/a> will be looking through his inconsistent squad and deciding who he will allow to leave.<\/p>\n

However, for Palace, he could be a wise addition ahead of next season for Vieira.<\/p>\n
