Crystal Palace interested in Portsmouth goalkeeper
Crystal Palace are interested in Portsmouth goalkeeper Alex Bass.
The 22-year-old stopper has been in impressive form for the League One club in the second half of the season.
And the Eagles are weighing up a move for Bass, who is contracted to Pompey until the summer of 2023.
He has played 23 matches in all competitions for Kenny Jackett’s side, who saw their promotion hopes ended after defeat in the play-offs earlier this week.
Jackett rejected any talk of cashing in on Bass earlier this year, speaking in March he told the Portsmouth News: “Selling him is not something we have considered.
“He has caught our eye – that’s the main thing. I hope he stays here and I hope he stays here for a long time and keeps improving.
“He’s a young player and young players want to break through, they want to establish themselves and do well for the club and he is no different.
“I don’t see anything else other than Alex being at Pompey and doing well. We’ll see if there is anything in the future, you don’t know.”
