As per Sacha Tavolieri, the Premier League club is advancing and talks with the Bundesliga outfit for the player.

Palace need someone like Christoph Baumgartner

The 26-year-old attacking midfielder is capable of operating on the flanks as well. He will add goals and creativity to the side. Crystal Palace need more quality in the final third, especially after sanctioning the departure of Eberechi Eze to Arsenal.

It will be interesting to see if they can sign the Austrian midfielder before the window closes. Crystal Palace have a talented team, but they need more depth in order to do well this season. They managed to win the FA Cup last season and the Community Shield recently. They will look to build on that and put together a team capable of fighting for trophies regularly. They will be competing in European football this season. They need a deeper squad in order to do well across multiple competitions.
