Crystal Palace are unhappy with the way Chelsea have pursued a deal for Michael Olise and feel their London rivals have ?crossed a line? in their conduct, according to reports.
Fresh from breaking the Premier League transfer record for a second time this year by spending £115million on Moises Caicedo, the Blues? massive summer splurge is set to continue after they submitted an offer that activates Olise?s release clause.
The fee is thought to be in the region of £35m and Olise would likely become the ninth major addition of the summer, with Romeo Lavia also on the verge of a £58m switch from Southampton.
But, according to the Daily Mail, the move for Olise is threatening to turn ugly with Palace having communicated their grievances to their Chelsea counterparts over the manner in which they have turned the winger?s head.
Despite interest from a number of Premier League giants this summer, including champions Manchester City, Palace were quietly confident that Olise was happy to stay at Selhurst Park.
But Chelsea have pushed hard to convince the France Under-21 international to swap south London for west London amid a backdrop of ?tapping up? concerns.
Palace believe Chelsea?s swoop may have contravened transfer rules and etiquette and have considered formally reporting their rivals ?for making an illegal approach?.
