Gary Neville has warned Crystal Palace boss Alan Pardew that he faces a fight to retain the services of Yannick Bolasie during the summer.
The 25-year-old winger grabbed an 11-minute hat-trick in Saturday's 4-1 demolition of Sunderland to enhance his reputation further in an impressive season.
"We talked about consistency with Bolasie and I think he's getting to a point now whereby bigger clubs will be looking at him," Neville told Sky Sports News.
"He's starting to impact the outcome of matches and we're seeing more consistency and we're seeing better finishes, as he's putting himself in better positions.
"His [third] goal against Sunderland was a better goal than it looks. It looks like a scramble, but actually there's two or three really good moments."
Bolasie's contract at Selhurst Park expires in 2017.
