Crystal Palace youngster Andre Coker is set to sign a new two-year deal, according to Sky sources.

The 18-year-old winger is considered one of the Eagles' most promising talents and has been training with the first team after signing his first professional deal last season.

Coker, a pacey attacker similar to current Palace stars Wilfried Zaha and Yannick Bolasie, starred for the academy side last season with five goals in 23 games for the U18s.

He will attempt to persuade Alan Pardew to give him a first-team berth in pre-season but could alternatively move out on loan.

Coker has also become the youngest player to be invited to the Back2action fitness camp, designed to bring players into pre-season in the best possible condition.

It is run by performance specialist Rayan Wilson, who has worked with likes of Bolasie and Tottenham's Danny Rose.
