The 22-year-old played 19 Premier League games for Palace during the just-concluded season, scoring 10 goals and six assists.

According to Goal, Chelsea, who are leading the hunt for the former Reading star, have already agreed personal terms with the forward.

The publication adds that the west Londoners are optimistic of sealing the deal, especially with the belief that rivals Manchester United could back down in their pursuit of the Palace ace.

However, Olise's release clause of around £60 million is said to be a huge stumbling block in their race to seal the transfer.

Reports claim that the Stamford Bridge dwellers are willing to offer two of their players in exchange for the French star in a move to sweeten the deal.

Trevoh Chalobah and Noni Madueke have been mooted as possible options to move the other way as part of any deal.

The duo is facing an uncertain future at Stamford Bridge, 90Min reporting that Chelsea are open to offers for Chalobah.

The centre-back managed just 17 appearances for the club after returning from injury.

London clubs Fulham and Tottenham Hotspur have both been linked with a possible move.
