Report: Dwight Gayle in talks with Crystal Palace over new deal

Crystal Palace striker Dwight Gayle has reportedly entered talks to sign a new four-year deal with the club.

Gayle has been linked with a move away from Selhurst Park this month, with the likes of Leicester City and Swansea City reportedly interested in the striker.

However, 26-year-old is now expected to end speculation over his future by signing a contract extension that will keep him at the club until 2020.

Gayle has failed to score a single league goal for the Eagles this season and has not started a top-flight match for the club since October.

He will also face increased competition for a place in the starting lineup after Palace brought Emmanuel Adebayor to the club in the January transfer window.
