Tottenham, West Ham and Aston Villa have all made enquiries for Crystal Palace winger Yannick Bolasie, according to Sky sources.
It is also understood that Palace are expecting bids for the 25-year-old DR Congo international from at least two of those clubs
Bolasie made a big impact in the Premier League with the Eagles last season and boss Alan Pardew is keen to keep him at Selhurst Park and build on impressive first season with an improved squad that has already been boosted by the arrivals of Yohan Cabaye from PSG and Patrick Bamford on loan from Chelsea.
Pardew even went as far as slapping a £40m price-tag on Bolasie, who joined Palace for around £400,000 from Bristol City in 2012, following his impressive performances towards the end of last season.
He said in April: "I'll sell Yannick, if someone wants to give me £40m to £60m, somewhere in there, that would be good
“I’ll take it and we'll build the team around that money. Every player has a price, of course.”
Aston Villa are keen to bolster their squad having sold Fabian Delph to Aston Villa and Christian Benteke to Liverpool - Tim Sherwood has recouped around £40m for the pair.
Tottenham are keen to add a wide forward to their squad having seen early summer target Anthony Martial sign a new contract with Monaco and have so far strengthened just their defence so far this summer.
