Hodgson admits Crystal Palace interest for Besiktas striker Tosun

Published on: 22 December 2017

Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson has confirmed his interest in Besiktas striker Cenk Tosun.

Palace lodged a bid for the 26-year-old on deadline day in August but were unable to get a deal across the line in time.

“I know him, he plays in the Champions League," said Hodgson.

“The club have watched him, yes. I don't think there's been any further contact between the clubs, I'd be surprised if that's the case.

“At the moment I have no information whatsoever that we are going to sign Cenk Tosun so if tomorrow the chairman says to me I've got you a player, Cenk Tosun, I shall be as surprised as you are."
