The potential move of Nigerian born England youth international to Crystal Palace has reportedly broken down due to the Liverpool forward's fitness according to Scottish Sun on Wednesday.

The report states that the striker was expected to hit the ground running but that will no longer be the case as his fitness concerns  due to lack of game times mean the Eagles are continuing their search for a striker.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp declared Solanke not fit to take part in the festive season's games due to "muscle problems" but remains open to letting the youngster head to another club.
