Palace want £70m for Doucoure, Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain interested, Liverpool poised to lose Henderson and Fabinho

What happened? According to the Daily Mail, Palace imposed a huge price tag on the midfielder, who signed him 12 months ago from Lens for £26m ($33.6m).

The bigger picture: Doucoure has enjoyed a stellar first season at Selhurst Park and still has four years remaining on his contract. Palace view the 23-year-old as a key player, and are desperate to keep him.

And what’s more: Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain go in a circle. According to the Evening Standard, Jurgen Klopp is keen to bolster his midfield with Doucoure, as Jordan Henderson and Fabinho appear poised to complete moves to Saudi clubs.

What’s next for Doucoure?: Doucoure is under contract and Pallas doesn’t need to sell it. However, should a potential buyer meet his high price tag, Roy Hodgson could find himself looking for a new midfielder. Liverpool have also been linked with Calvin Phillips and Romeo Lafia.
