Palace bid for Monaco midfielder Camara rejected
Ligue 1 side Monaco reject Crystal Palace's verbal bid for midfielder Lamine Camara.
Monaco have dismissed a bid of over £35m from Crystal Palace for midfielder Lamine Camara. The 22-year-old Senegal international has made 49 appearances for his country and was part of the squad that competed in the 2022 World Cup. Camara joined Monaco from Metz in 2024 for a fee of 15m euros (£12.8m) after his successful youth career in Senegal.
Crystal Palace have completed four signings this summer, including Evann Guessand on loan from Aston Villa, Dwight McNeil from Everton in a swap deal, and Takehiro Tomiyasu on a free transfer. The recent additions followed the signing of Oscar Mingueza from Celta Vigo by new manager Pierre Sage, who replaced Oliver Glasner who is now at Nottingham Forest.
Crystal Palace are set to face Freiburg in their final pre-season friendly before their Premier League debut against Everton on Saturday, 22nd August.
