Crystal Palace are pushing to sign Leicester City attacker Demarai Gray.

The Sun says the Eagles will swoop for Gray as a replacement for Andros Townsend if he leaves this month — or at the end of his deal in the summer.

Gray seems sure to seek a fresh start after Foxes manager Brendan Rodgers sidelined him.

He has only played one Premier League game in a season that has seen Leicester storm into third, two points off the top.

Roy Hodgson's Eagles are looking to sign a handful of players, as many of his squad are set to leave this summer.

Gray, 24, would have a better chance of playing with them as they reshape their group.

Leicester's wide man has other interest at home and abroad but Palace are emerging as serious contenders.
