Crystal Palace hope to complete the signing of midfielder Nick Carle from Bristol City by the end of the week.

Eagles boss Neil Warnock confirmed a fee had been agreed between the two clubs and Carle is set to undergo a medical at Selhurst Park on Thursday.

The 26-year-old Australian started 17 games for the Robins last season after joining the Robins in January from Turkish side Genclerbirigi for £500,000.

Warnock told the Advertiser: "We've got him in for his medical and we can hopefully have it all done and dusted some time soon."

The Eagles boss is looking to expand his squad further with Jose Fonte, who impressed on loan from Benfica last season, and another striker among his priorities.

Warnock said: "If I get Nick and Jose I still want to get another couple."
