Crystal Palace, Swansea chasing Fenerbahce defender Gregory van der Wiel

Crystal Palace and Swansea City are chasing Fenerbahce defender Gregory van der Wiel.

The 29-year-old came through the ranks at Ajax and played for five years in Amsterdam, where he worked with Eagles boss Frank de Boer.

The Dutch international then spent four years in the French capital with Paris St Germain, before making the switch to Fenerbahce in 2016.
