Following reports that Girona have accepted a bid from Crystal Palace for Martinez Arnau - discussions over personal terms are said to have begun as all parties look to finalise the move in the coming days. The defender is open to the move, and if talks proceed smoothly, the transfer could be confirmed in the coming days - which would see the interested team secure one of their top targets and put their rivals on notice. Napoli are reportedly waiting in the wings. Finalising a fee and payment terms remains central to closing the transfer. Crystal Palace's back line has been a real strength this season, conceding just 0.5 goals per game (3 in 6). Martinez Arnau would be expected to slot into that unit and hold his own in an already solid setup. Speculation continues to connect Crystal Palace with Mateus Fernandes, Yann Bisseck and Hayden Hackney while no fresh rumours surround Girona. Looking for Crystal Palace transfer rumours?
