Crystal Palace have pushed ahead with a move for Millwall talisman Romain Esse in a bid to beat a host of other Premier League clubs to the teenager's signature
Crystal Palace is poised to sign English Under-20 midfielder Romain Esse from Millwall for £14.5 million in their first January transfer.
Sporting director Dougie Freedman has been impressed by Esse's performances and secured a deal that includes a sell-on clause for Millwall. Palace intends to integrate Esse into their first team immediately, rather than loaning him back to Millwall.
