Patrick van Aanholt is set to remain at Crystal Palace after PSV Eindhoven agreed a deal to sign AC Milan’s Ricardo Rodriguez.

Palace rejected a third bid from the Eredivisie club for the Netherlands international, who has 18 months remaining on his contract, earlier on Wednesday.

The 29-year-old, who joined Palace in 2017 from Sunderland for a fee in the region of £14m, has scored twice in 17 appearances in the Premier League this season.

Talks over a move for fellow left-back Rodriguez to join Napoli from AC Milan broke down, enabling a deal for the Switzerland international to move to PSV instead.

Meanwhile, AC Milan are now in a position to press ahead with a shock deal for Wigan's highly-rated young left-back Antonee Robinson.

Sky Sports News reported earlier on Wednesday that the Latics will consider a move for Colchester defender Cohen Bramall if they lose Robinson to the Italian giants.
