Crystal Palace boss Vieira targeting Napoli midfielder Anguissa

Crystal Palace boss Patrick Vieira is targeting Napoli midfielder Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa.

Vieira is a huge fan of the Cameroon midfielder, who is on loan from Fulham and one of the shock successes during Napoli's sensational campaign.

The Eagles boss is still smarting that he failed to land Anguissa, 25, last summer when Serie ANapoli stepped in to take him and also offered an option to buy from Fulham.

However, Vieira hopes he can persuade his money men to go big next time and land the powerful all-action star, says The Sun.

Napoli will keep Anguissa for the season but Vieira is already looking to next summer and building his squad.

Fulham want around £20million for Anguissa but that fee may come down as he will have only a year left on his contract at Craven Cottage by next summer.
