Ian Holloway targeting Spurs' youngster Townsend

Crystal Palace boss is still in the market for more players to strengthen his newly promoted side, with Tottenham Hotspurs' young winger Andros Townsend thought to be his target.

Townsend was an unused substitute in Tottenham's season opener against Palace, which Spurs won 1-0 thanks to a controversial penalty converted by record signing Roberto Soldado.


Townsend can play on either wing, and though he's part of the senior set up at Spurs, he's set for a season on the bench as he's very low in the pecking order. He impressed on loan last season at QPR, with 4 goals in 12 appearances.
