Schlupp has made 16 appearances for the club this season but is yet to make a single start under Oliver Glasner.

Palace, currently 12th in the Premier League, are prepared to let their versatile player leave if the right offer comes in. Stoke, sitting in 18th, and Coventry, in 14th under new boss Frank Lampard, are both fighting for his signature.
