Crystal Palace and Fulham are reportedly keen on signing 28-year-old English striker Chuba Akpom from Ajax next year.
A report from TEAMtalk has claimed that Crystal Palace and Fulham have made an enquiry for Chuba Akpom. The two London clubs are in the market for a striker and have set their sights on the 28-year-old Ajax attacker.
Chuba Akpom has been quite impressive for Ajax this month, and he has scored five goals for them in November. He was playing for Middlesbrough in the Championship last season and was phenomenal for them as well. Akpom managed to score 29 goals across all competitions and he won the Championship Player of the Year award last term.
It will be interesting to see if he willing to return to the Premier League once again. The opportunity to showcase his qualities in the Premier League could be a tempting proposition for him. Ajax are a Champions League-level club, but they are going through a rough patch. It remains to be seen how the situation unfolds.
The report from TEAMtalk claims that the Dutch giants might be open to a loan transfer. Joining either Crystal Palace of Fulham on loan during the second half of the campaign could be a good move for the 28-year-old.
If Chuba Akpom manages to impress on loan, he might get to secure a permanent move at the end of the season. The former Arsenal striker will be attracted to the idea of competing in the Premier League on a regular basis. He is at the peak of his career and will want to test himself at the highest level.
Meanwhile, Crystal Palace need more attacking depth, and the 28-year-old could improve them if he manages to hit the ground running. He could be an upgrade on players like Jean-Philippe Mateta. Recent reports have linked them with other strikers like Youssoufa Moukoko and Timo Werner.
At Fulham, he could be the ideal replacement for Aleksandar Mitrovic, who left the club this past summer. Like Fulham, the Cottagers have shown interest in many strikers, including Pedro and Werner. But Chuba Akpom is also a viable target for the West London club.
Both teams will be looking to improve during the second half of the season, and they need quality additions in January. Akpom would be a useful signing for them, especially if he can be signed on loan until the end of the season.
