OFF! Crystal Palace pull out of deal for Liverpool striker Solanke

Crystal Palace have pulled out of their deal for Liverpool striker Dominic Solanke.

BBC Sport reports Solanke's proposed loan move to Crystal Palace is off because of concerns over his fitness.

Palace manager Roy Hodgson confirmed the 21-year-old was a target for the January transfer window on Sunday.

But Solanke has not made a first-team appearance for Liverpool this season and was ruled out of recent matches because of a muscle problem.

Palace need a striker who is available to play immediately.
