Leicester, Burnley eyeing Palace striker Gayle

Crystal Palace striker Dwight Gayle is attracting interest from Premier League rivals.

The Mirror says Burnley and Leicester City are eyeing unsettled £5million-rated Palace striker Gayle.

The Eagles' 24-year-old hitman is getting increasingly frustrated at his lack of regular starts under new boss Neil Warnock.

The forward is a clinical finisher but fears Warnock prefers to use bigger men up front such as Marouane Chamakh, even though he only has one goal this term - and that came back in August.

Gayle has been in and out of the side this term despite scoring six goals, including a hat-trick in the League Cup against Walsall.
