At a glance
- Crystal Palace is considering FC Midtjylland forward Darío Osorio as an alternative attacking target late in the Premier League transfer window.
- The 22-year-old Chilean could become the club’s preferred option if Malick Fofana joins Sunderland instead.
- Premier League clubs have regularly monitored Osorio since he moved to Midtjylland, but none has completed a deal for him.
Darío Osorio has emerged as Crystal Palace’s “plan B” with the English transfer window approaching its close. The Chilean attacker, one of FC Midtjylland’s leading players, could be called on to reinforce Palace’s attack if another deal falls through.
According to Daily Mail journalist Bobby Manzi, Palace’s interest in the 22-year-old depends on what happens with Malick Fofana. If Fofana chooses to sign for Sunderland rather than join the London club, Osorio would become Palace’s alternative target.
Osorio has attracted regular attention from Premier League clubs since arriving at Midtjylland. Despite that interest, no English club has completed his signing so far.
The situation is being decided on the final day of the English transfer market, with Crystal Palace assessing its remaining options before the window closes.
