Crystal Palace boss Tony Pulis is seeking a bumper summer transfer budget.

The Mirror says Pulis has told Crystal Palace he wants £30million to take the club to the next level after completing his survival miracle.

He wants the South London club to spend if they are to establish themselves as a Premier League side.

Pulis is on the look out for a centre-forward and remains frustrated over the failure to sign Connor Wickham in January. The 56-year-old remains a huge fan of the Sunderland striker, but is aware he will now have to pay far more than the £5million asking price that senior Palace figures baulked at during the winter - even if the Black Cats go down.
