Crystal Palace put €30m offer on table – Player says England move excites him

Crystal Palace have tabled a €30m offer for Red Bull Salzburg midfielder Bartosz Mazurek, 19, who has expressed enthusiasm about a Premier League move.

Crystal Palace have made a formal bid of €30m to sign Red Bull Salzburg midfielder Bartosz Mazurek, according to journalist Mateusz Borek. The 19-year-old Poland U21 international joined Salzburg from Jagiellonia Białystok last summer for around €7m and has impressed with two goals and six assists in 23 matches.

FC Porto are also interested in Mazurek, with discussions reportedly held during a recent Champions League match between the clubs. However, Borek suggests the player is keen on the Premier League as his next step, describing England as "the highest level you can reach." Mazurek has stated his dream destinations are Real Madrid and the Premier League, with both leagues exciting him most.

It remains unclear whether Crystal Palace's €30m offer is for the January window or the summer transfer market. Salzburg are expected to sell if presented with a strong financial opportunity.
