Crystal Palace are looking to improve their defensive unit with the signing of Yann Bisseck from Inter Milan.

However, a report from FCInter1908 claims that the German defender is not expected to leave the Italian club in January. The development will come as a blow for Crystal Palace. It will be interesting to see if they decide to move on to other targets.

They could use more quality in the defensive unit, especially with Marc Guehi nearing the end of his contract at the club. He will leave on a free transfer at the end of this season. They will need to replace him properly and the German international could prove to be a quality addition.

The Inter Milan defender is valued at around €35-40 million. Crystal Palace certainly have the financial muscle to afford him and it will be interesting to see if they are prepared to wait until the summer transfer window.

Crystal Palace have shown great improvement in recent seasons under Oliver Glasner. They have won the FA Cup and the Community Shield. They have secured European football as well. They could be an attractive destination for the defender.

Can Palace convince Inter Milan to sell Bisseck?

However, Inter Milan will not want to lose him in the middle of the season. They will be hoping to fight for trophies and they will not want to weaken the team. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops. Bisseck is not a regular starter for Inter Milan but he remains an important squad player for them. The move to Crystal Palace could allow him regular football. It remains to be seen how the situation develops. The German defender needs to play regularly at this stage of his career and leaving the Italian club could be ideal for him.

The 24-year-old defender has shown his quality in Italian football and he has the attributes to succeed in the Premier League as well. If he ends up joining Crystal Palace, he will establish himself as an important player for them and cement his place in the national team with regular football at the club level.
