Liverpool striker considers Palace move

 

Liverpool striker Christian Benteke is considering a move to Crystal Palace, according to The Daily Mirror.

 

Benteke, 25, has endured a torrid time at Anfield since making the £32.5m switch from Aston Villa last summer.

 

The Belgium international has dropped right down the pecking order under Jurgen Klopp and chances of first team football were made even slimmer following Sadio Mane’s £30m arrival earlier this week.

 

Alan Pardew has now turned his attentions to the Liverpool frontman after Marseille striker Michy Batshuayi rejected their £30m bid in favour of a move to Chelsea and Benteke is reportedly weighing up a switch to Palace.

Despite only making 20 starts across all competitions for Liverpool last season, only three teammates managed to score more goals than Benteke (10).
