Crystal Palace forward Alexander Sorloth has joined Belgian side Gent on loan for the rest of the season.

Sorloth, 23, joined the Eagles for £9m from Norwegian side FC Midtjylland in January 2018 and played four times before the end of the 2018-19 season.

The Norway international has played a further 16 times this season, scoring once in the EFL Cup in August.

Crystal Palace have been linked with Everton striker Oumar Niasse, 28.

Roy Hodgson's side still have the likes of Wilfried Zaha, Jordan Ayew, Christian Benteke and Connor Wickham as forward options.


:lolol:

Jesus what a depressing list of strikers.

Roy Hodgson's side still have the likes of Wilfried Zaha, Jordan Ayew, Christian Benteke and Connor Wickham pretending to be forward options.

Between them they has amassed 4 goals.
Or as we call it:-

A Duffy. :lol:

If both teams get through their semi-finals, he'll be playing against Percy in the Belgian Cup Final.

This one had a whiff of the "George Weah's cousin" about it from the off.
Nevertheless the Albion should have picked him up, just for shits and giggles.

On 31 January 2018, Sørloth signed for Crystal Palace for a reported fee of £9 million.

In 20 appearances in League and Cup, he's scored the grand total of 1 goal.

9 million pounds for 1 goal.

Plus wages.

Should have kept him. Sounds like he was doing a decent job there.

As amusing as it is laughing at Palace his record isn't that different to Locadia's plus he's younger and cost less.

Yes, I know Big Jurg has been doing the business the last few weeks, but still. Perhaps next season Sorloth will come good for those up the road.

FFS! When they spend big though, they’re mugged off for £32m for Benteke too! It’s not easy signing strikers you know! What would your advice to Parish be?

Big Jurg has scored twice as many goals, this season.

It was mentioned in the "local" press that Palace had been totally mugged off when they signed him. Not very good and worth about 1/10th of what they paid.

Goon squad wouldn't have it.

Plus ca change.

Congratulations to Palarse there for some very smart work - they've got someone to take him off their hands, even of only temporarily.
