Crystal Palace have reportedly secured an agreement to sign 19-year-old French defender Jaydee Canvot from Toulouse in the final days of the summer transfer window.

According to a report by Graeme Bailey on TBR Football, Crystal Palace have secured an agreement with Toulouse to sign Jaydee Canvot for a fee of around £25 million. The 19-year-old is highly rated across Europe, and he has a big future ahead of himself.

The Frenchman could develop into a quality player for Crystal Palace with the right guidance. They needed to bring in a quality central defender, especially with Marc Guehi expected to leave the club this summer. The 25-year-old is in the final year of his contract, and he has decided not to renew his deal. The England international wants to play for a bigger club, and it will be interesting to see where he ends up.

Meanwhile, Crystal Palace have beaten Aston Villa to sign the 19-year-old French defensive sensation. Canvot was linked with Aston Villa as well, and the West Midlands club will be disappointed to have missed out on him. It will be interesting to see if the 19-year-old can adapt to English football quickly and make an instant impact.

There is no doubt that he has the potential to develop into a quality player for Crystal Palace. The Eagles will hope to nurture him into an important player for the club. If he manages to fulfil his potential with them, the £25 million investment could look like a bargain in the future.

Crystal Palace could get the best out of Canvot

Crystal Palace have done well to bring in talented young players in recent seasons, and they will hope that the 19-year-old can prove to be a hit for them as well. Meanwhile, the move to the Premier League will be an excellent opportunity for the youngster, and he will look to prove his quality in English football.

The Frenchman has the physicality to adapt to the Premier League, and he will hope to make an instant impact. Crystal Palace have managed to win the FA Cup and the Community Shield recently. They will look to continue pushing for domestic trophies, and they need quality players. The 19-year-old should prove to be a solid future investment.
