Crystal Palace and Fulham have been offered a chance to sign the 20-year-old Belgian midfielder Aster Vranckx.
According to Sacha Tavolieri, Crystal Palace and Fulham have an opportunity to sign Aster Vranckx. The 20-year-old’s future is uncertain, and he could be heading to the Premier League ahead of next season.
Vranckx showcased great potential while coming up the ranks at KV Mechelen. He managed to attract a lot of attention from across Europe and finally, VfL Wolfsburg managed to acquire his services back in the summer of 2021.
He made a total of 28 appearances for the German club in his very first season and also contributed with two goals. However, the majority of his appearances were off the bench and he couldn’t really establish himself as a first-team regular.
Ahead of the 2022/23 season, AC Milan acquired him on a season-long loan with a buy option. But, the 20-year-old midfielder failed to make any impact while playing for the Italian club. He only made a total of ten appearances and was on the pitch for under 350 minutes.
Sauf surprise liée à ses performances à l'Euro, le capitaine des #DiablesRouges🇧🇪U21 – Aster #Vranckx – devrait être vendu par #Wolfsburg cet été. La solution privilégiée est la #PremierLeague où son dossier a été présenté notamment à #FulhamFC & #CrystalPalace.

Vranckx is all set to return to his parent club but is unlikely to stay there for next season despite having a contract that runs until the summer of 2025. Wolfsburg are all set to sell the 20-year-old midfielder, who is on the lookout for regular first-team action.
Meanwhile, Fulham and Crystal Palace are two potential destinations for the Belgian international. The Cottagers are interested in acquiring his services, and they are looking for a new central midfielder and have their eyes on Vranckx.
Amid a lot of interest in Joao Palhinha’s services, and the 27-year-old expected to be on the move, the 20-year-old Belgian midfielder could be a potential replacement. However, Fulham will be pushed all the way by the Eagles.
Crystal Palace, who finished 11th in the Premier League in the 2022/23 season, are looking to strengthen their team ahead of next season. Roy Hodgson is keen on adding a fresh face into the mix, someone who is versatile in nature and the 20-year-old seems to fit the bill perfectly.
