Crystal Palace's Alan Pardew is set to revisit his interest in Brazilian midfielder Lucas Lima.

The Sun reports that the Eagles are contemplating a January move for the 26-year-old Santos playmaker after disappointingly missing out on him in the summer.

Santos are desperate to tie down their star man to a long-term deal but fear they will lose out to cashed up Chinese Super League outfit Hebei Fortune who have bene showing plenty of interest.

Palace could also make their presence felt as Pardew is very keen on luring the 12-time Brazil international to Selhurst Park once the winter transfer window opens.
