Palace boss Hodgson cannot rule out Olise sale

Crystal Palace veteran manager Roy Hodgson refused to rule out the sale of Michael Olise.

The winger is wanted by Manchester City, Chelsea, and other top sides this summer.

As he recovers from a hamstring injury, the youngster could be on the move before the summer window closes.

Hodgson told Sky Sports: "No one knows at this moment. If there are clubs desperately or seriously preparing a bid and tempting him then he'll have a decision.

"I can only wait and see what decision is he going to make. He knows we are very keen to keep him.

“You can never be certain that the players you've got, like, want are definitely going to stay - we have a transfer market.

“I can only hope that market doesn't on this occasion punish us by persuading one of our very important players to move."
