Rumours are swirling around El-Ouas Zakaria, with Crystal Palace reportedly showing interest in the defender currently plying his trade at Genk. With both teams looking to strengthen their squads, the move could have a massive impact on their seasons going forward. Talks are underway, and with no competition emerging, Crystal Palace are seen as the sole contenders for the player's signature. Crystal Palace's back line has been a real strength this season, conceding just 0.94 goals per game (15 in 16). El-Ouas Zakaria would be expected to slot into that unit and hold his own in an already solid setup. Crystal Palace have recently been linked with Brennan Johnson, Jens Hauge and Sacha Boey while Genk have had no rumoured targets. Need more Crystal Palace transfer rumours?
