Crystal Palace are prepared to listen to offers for striker Jean-Philippe Mateta during the upcoming January transfer window, according to football transfer insider Ekrem Konur.

Mateta is valued at €30m by Transfermarkt. His contract with Crystal Palace, known as the Eagles, is due to expire at the end of June next year.

He has made only one appearance in the Premier League this season.
