Premier League side Crystal Palace are planning a transfer window bid for Thomas Ince, according to reports.
The Blackpool player has been linked with a move to Swansea City in recent days, with Swans chairman Huw Jenkins confirming that they have made an approach.
However, Palace have now joined the race for Ince's signature and are willing to pay £8m to secure an agreement, The Mirror claims.
Tony Pulis's side are currently 18th in the league.
