With the arrival of Lautaro Martinez sending him further down the pecking order, Inter forward Eder could be on his way to Premier League club Crystal Palace.

The 31-year-old has failed to establish himself this season after serving as a reserve to captain Mauro Icardi, and the recent addition of Martinez from Argentine club Racing has seen Eder fall further out of favour.

This has put Crystal Palace on alert, with former Nerazzurri coach Roy Hodgson keen to reinforce his attacking options and an admirer of Eder, according to CalcioNews24.com.

Inter would be ready to sell the former Sampdoria forward for €10 million and it is believed that Palace are ready to submit a formal offer.

The Eagles recovered from a disastrous start under another former Inter coach in Frank de Boer, before finishing strongly with Hodgson at the helm and securing an 11th place finish.

However, with Christian Benteke struggling for goals up front, the London club are keen to recruit a new forward and believe Eder fits the bill.

The Brazil-born Italy international has scored 14 goals in 83 appearances for Inter since arriving at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza in January 2016.
