Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson says the club remain in the dark over Michael Olise's future amid interest from Chelsea and Manchester City.
The young Frenchman, who spent time with both Chelsea and City at academy level, is attracting plenty of interest after two impressive seasons in south London.
Olise was last season voted his club’s Player of the Year after scoring twice while registering 11 assists, and reportedly has a £35million release clause in his contract.
Asked if Olise will stay put this summer, Hodgson told Sky Sports: "No one knows at this moment. If there are clubs desperately or seriously preparing a bid and tempting him then he'll have a decision.

"I can only wait and see what decision is he going to make. He knows we are very keen to keep him.
“You can never be certain that the players you've got, like, want are definitely going to stay - we have a transfer market. I can only hope that market doesn't on this occasion punish us by persuading one of our very important players to move."
