Crystal Palace are set to cut short Christantus Uche’s loan when the transfer window reopens in January, DAILY POST reports.
Uche moved to the Selhurst Park from Spanish club, Getafe in the summer.
The deal includes a €20m obligatory option to buy should the Nigeria international make 10 starting appearances this season.
The attacking midfielder is, however, yet to start a Premier League game for Oliver Glasner’s side.
Uche’s three league appearances came as a substitute.
According to Spanish sources, Palace are now considering sending him back to Getafe in January.
The 22-year-old impressed for Getafe last season, recording four goals and six assists in 33 league appearances.
