Crystal Palace are understood to have expressed an interest in Newcastle United left-back Paul Dummett - but the Eagles face a race against time to get the deal done on deadline day.

Sources at Palace suggest that Dummett is a player that Alan Pardew - who handed him his Newcastle debut - still admires the Geordie defender and is keen to add more Premier League experience to his squad at Selhurst Park.

Palace sounded out the possibility of signing Dummett last week but knew they needed to clear their wage bill before moving for another defender.

Palace then moved both Barry Bannan and Glenn Murray out of Selhurst Park yesterday.

Wales international Dummett is thought to be valued at around £8million and has two years left on his current contract.

But time is running out for Pardew and they are still to table an official bid.
