Crystal Palace are reportedly trying to tie Christian Benteke and James Tomkins down to new deals, with the former's contract expiring at the end of this season.

Crystal Palace are reportedly set to tie Christian Benteke and James Tomkins down to new contracts.

Twenty-eight-year-old Benteke's deal runs out at the end of the season, while Tomkins, 30, has two years left on his current terms.

The Eagles are keen to prevent the striker in particular from leaving for free at the end of the campaign, according to the Daily Mail.

The club are open to selling the Belgian striker, who has scored just four Premier League goals from 47 appearances across the last two seasons, in order to preserve his transfer value.

Tomkins has been a steady performer at the back and his contract talks do not appear to be in the context of an exit.
