SHOCKING: Could this be a target for Crystal Palace?

Rising Germany talent Brajan Gruda could be headed out of the Bundesliga after arriving on the scene with a splash last season.

The 20-year-old starred for Mainz 05, drawing admiration from Bayern Munich’s Thomas Müller, and his success has landed him square in the sights of Premier League talent factory Brighton & Hove Albion — according to transfers journalist Fabrizio Romano:

Brighton has produced some serious talent in recent years, as evidenced by their list of transfer outgoings. From Moisés Caicedo (€116M to Chelsea FC) and Alexis Mac Allister (€42M to Liverpool) in 2023/24 to Marc Cucurella (€65M to Chelsea) and Leandro Trossard (€24M to Arsenal FC) in 2022/23, the Seagulls have made many players into big names on the transfer market.

And, of course, there is Bayern’s big signing of this new window: Michael Olise, who starred there in the last three seasons.

Could Gruda be the next one to blossom at Palace?
