Two Premier League clubs make contact with Remy

Both Crystal Palace and Newcastle United have made contact with Chelsea and Loic Remy over a possible move during the January transfer window.

Widespread reports have suggested that Chelsea are ready to let the French striker go after a lack of game time since joining the club from QPR last season.

According to the Mirror, Palace have made contact with the club and are readying a bid believed to be in the region of £6m, below Chelsea’s value of the striker. Palace are keen to keep their bid low given Remy’s age.

As well as Palace, Newcastle have also reportedly made their initial contact over a possible six-month loan deal for the striker.

RMC reporter, Mohamed Bouhafsi, tweeted this earlier today.

The tweet translates to: “NUFC Is in talks with the # Rémy entourage for a loan of 6 months! Remy gives one week of reflection!”

Remy will be given a week to decide upon on the offer, with the striker not short of suitors in the Premier League.
