Crystal Palace and Aston Villa are chasing after RB Leipzig striker Jean-Kevin Augustin.

The 22-year-old attacker is a hot property in Europe, with Leipzig willing to part with their French under-21 star.

Sky Sports says they want at least 15 million, which is what they paid Paris Saint-Germain to sign him two years ago.

Augustin is a top prospect, but he has failed to fulfill his potential in Germany, only managing 17 appearances in the league last term.

Any deal must be done in the coming days, as the Premier League transfer window shuts on Thursday night.
