Liverpool striker Dominic Solanke has had a medical with Crystal Palace ahead of his loan move.

The 21-year-old has had limited opportunities at Anfield since joining the club from Chelsea in 2017.

He has not made a first team appearance this season but is still viewed as one for the future by Jurgen Klopp.

Dominic Solanke has had a medical at Crystal Palace ahead of a January loan move

Palace manager Roy Hodgson is ready to give him his chance to play regular Premier League football.

The boss has managed to convince the Reading-born forward to move to Selhurst Park despite competition from Brighton, Huddersfield, Bournemouth and Rangers.

In 18 months at Anfield, Solanke has made 28 first-team appearances but scored just once - against Brighton in a 4-0 win on the final day of the 2017-18 season.

Solanke is highly regarded by England and has an excellent record at youth level, having helped the Under-20s to win the World Cup in 2017.

He went on to make his senior international debut in November 2017 as a substitute against Brazil, but has not received another cap since.
