Crystal Palace outcast Jairo Riedewald has become a target for Celta Vigo, with the Spanish side reportedly hellbent on signing the Dutchman this window.
The former Ajax defender has struggled for game time since his move to the Premier League, playing just 436 Premier League minutes in the Eagles' last campaign. There has been little improvement this season with Riedewald making just four appearances in all competitions this season.
However, the Dutchman's lack of game time hasn't put Celta Vigo off as AS report that he is the "chosen one" for the Spanish club as they look to add defensive reinforcements in January.

The Spanish news outlet report that the deal is "close to taking shape" and that

However, the Eagles don't possess huge strength in depth at centre back so they may be forced to find a replacement for Riedewald in January.
