    Palace already have two top keepers in Sam Johnstone and Vicente Guaita, making that department well covered and also expensive to run.
    Rangers have been keen on Butland, 30, for a year but only pressed on with a deal in recent weeks.
    Their initial interest faded when Allan McGregor returned to their plans.
    But his belated exit left them in need of an experienced replacement.

    The former Stoke shot-stopper failed to make any appearances at Palace or United this season.
    Butland made nine league appearances for Palace in the league last season.
    He reportedly held talks over a move to Scotland on Tuesday night – the same day Gers confirmed the capture of Dujon Sterling.
    Last month we revealed how Man Utd were prepared to DOUBLE the wages offered by the Ibrox side in order to keep him at Old Trafford.

    And the move comes with the LaLiga giants linked with Chelsea’s Kai Havertz.
    So some Blues fans reckon Hazard has paved the way for Havertz to be sold after Real cleared space in their squad.
    One said: “Hazard sacrificed himself so Chelsea could get rid of Havertz… club legend.”
    Another agreed: “Hazard sacrificed himself for the greater good. Proper Chels.”

    One added: “Hazard sacrificed himself so Madrid had to sign Havertz. F*****g trooper man.”
    Another joked: “Hazard sacrificed his soul so we get rid of Havertz.”
    Hazard, 32, left Chelsea for Real in 2019 in a deal worth up to £150million.
    But the Belgian struggled for form and with injuries, scoring just seven goals in his 76 appearances.

    And after suffering a strained relationship with manager Carlo Ancelotti the club and player parted ways.
    Havertz, 23, meanwhile, joined Chelsea in 2020 for a then-club record £75m deal from Bayer Leverkusen.
    And despite scoring the winning goal in the Champions League final in his first season, the German has lacked consistency.
    It leaves Chelsea open to selling him in the summer, with Real leading the race for Havertz.
    Star striker Karim Benzema, 35, has left Madrid and is linked with a mega-money move to Saudi Arabia, leaving the side in search of a new No9.

    Cheeky football fans all make same joke as Ange Postescoglou signs off at Celtic with Treble… before joining Tottenham

    CHEEKY football fans have all been making the same joke about Ange Postecoglu’s impending move to Tottenham.That’s after he signed off in style at Celtic with the Treble.
    Fans made the same joke about Tottenham target Ange Postecoglu as he led Celtic to the TrebleCredit: Rex
    Postecoglu has been a smash hit in Glasgow since joining the Hoops two years ago.
    The Australian coach has won back-to-back titles, as well as two Scottish League Cups.
    And Saturday’s 3-1 win over Inverness in the Scottish Cup final saw ‘Big Ange’ wrap up a trio of trophies this season.
    The game is set to be Postecoglu’s last as Celtic boss, with Spurs expected to make an official approach next week.

    SunSport can also reveal Daniel Levy is ready to sweeten the move by paying up to £30million for Hoops striker Kyogo Furuhashi.
    However, football fans have been unable to resist drawing parallels between Postecoglu’s Celtic success and Tottenham’s lack of trophies over the past 15 years.
    Spurs’ last piece of silverware came in the 2008 Carabao Cup final after an extra-time win over Chelsea.
    And Postecoglu, who has also won league titles in Australia and Japan, could have his work cut out with the trophy-shy north Londoners.

    Cheeky fans have certainly been twisting the knife, with many claiming Postecoglu looked “miserable” after Celtic’s Treble by knowing he’s off to serial runners-up Spurs.
    One said: “Postecoglu looks like a man who knows he won’t get near another trophy.”
    Another declared: “Postecoglu looks like a man who’s on the way to Spurs, looks miserable.”
    One noted: “Congratulations on winning your final-ever trophy!”
    Another joked: “Postecoglu has won more trophies today (1 day) than Tottenham have in 15 years (5578 days).”
    One laughed: “Now that Big Ange has gotten all that winning out of his system, it’s time to come to Tottenham big man.”
    Another added: “Ange looking conflicted about celebrating this treble and then going to Tottenham where he’ll never win anything again.” More

    And if Postecoglou, 57, agrees to become Tottenham chief this week then that would vastly increase their chances of landing the Japanese ace.
    Furuhashi, 28, would be ideal for Spurs and they are prepared to pay around £25-30million to make him a major capture.
    Best known as Kyogo, the Hoops star has been one of the major successes in Postecoglou’s time in Scotland — with 23 goals in 31 league games.
    And, at his age, the chance of the Premier League may also be too good to refuse.

    But there are other clubs in England with Kyogo in their sights because of his finishing, clever running and positive attitude.
    Postecoglou is currently waiting for permission to speak to Spurs supremo Daniel Levy.
    The Australian enjoys being boss at Celtic but may be open to a new challenge if the job is right.
    West Ham boss David Moyes has been backed as the front-runner for the Celtic post if Postecoglou leaves.

    But Moyes insists he’s blanking it all out ahead of Wednesday’s Europa Conference League Final against Fiorentina.
    The Scottish tactician said: “I’ve never even considered it. I’m West Ham manager and I’m really enjoying my period here.
    “I’m hopefully trying to continue growing a really good football club so I’ve not given it any consideration.
    “Through my years I’ve been linked with lots of jobs at different times but I have to say I’m really happy at the moment and I’m settled where I am.
    “The club have been so good to me and we’re enjoying the journey we’re on.” More

    JACK GREALISH had to give the kitman a telling off as Manchester City celebrated their FA Cup final win in style in wild dressing room scenes. Ilkay Gundogan was the goalscoring hero as the Premier League champions secured a domestic double by beating arch rivals Manchester United 2-1 at Wembley.

    Grealish filmed himself enjoying a well-deserved beer while singing along to Oasis’ classic anthem Wonderwall.
    And he captured the moment kitman Brandon Ashton, as seems to be tradition, got half-naked and slid across the dressing room floor.
    As City’s superstars stars egged him on, Ashton slightly misjudged his slide and went careering into Grealish’s dressing room seat.
    Rather than worry about his slippery friend’s well-being, the England international was more concerned about his prized washbag.

    Keeper Stefan Ortega also enjoyed a cold one next to City’s No1 Ederson, who wore a blue wig.
    City are now just one win away from matching United’s historic 1999 Treble.
    Pep Guardiola told BBC Sport: “Now is the first time we can talk about the treble.
    “Against United, it was special for our city, for our fans. We performed really well. Really, really well. I am so pleased.”
