CRYSTAL Palace are in a battle with Premier League rivals West Ham United and Swansea City to sign Cardiff City defender Bruno Ecuele Manga, according to reports.
The 27-year-old has impressed since joining the Bluebirds from Lorient in 2014, and reports in France suggest that he has attracted interest from the Premier League.
Manga only has one year remaining on his contract at Cardiff, and French magazine Le 10 Sport is reporting that Palace, West Ham and Swansea are all considering making bids this summer.

Was initially thinking that we'll be lucky to get back what we pad for him as he's on his last year of contract but as there's a few 'big hitters' looking at him, I'd hope to get around £4 or £5 M for him.
Good player, but I always felt that he was prone to lapses in concentration now and again.
