Crystal Palace are in talks to sign Joachim Andersen from Ligue 1 side Lyon.  The Denmark international centre-back impressed during a season-long loan at Fulham, despite the west London club's relegation to the Championship in May. Sky Sports News reported this month that new Palace boss Patrick Vieira wanted to add another defender. The 25-years-old has attracted interest from a number of clubs this summer, including fellow Premier League side Tottenham, so Palace are hopeful of concluding a deal soon.

He was part of Denmark's Euro 2020 squad, making substitute appearances in their knockout-stage matches against Wales, Czech Republic and England.
