Report: Crystal Palace to lodge improved bid for Swansea City's Neil Taylor

Crystal Palace are reportedly not giving up on their attempt to land Swansea City left-back Neil Taylor.
According to the Guardian, Palace are set to lodge an improved bid of roughly £4.5 million for Taylor after having their initial offer of around £3 million rejected last week.
The 25-year-old defender - who is under contract through the 2015-16 season at Liberty Stadium - would provide a logical boost to Palace's backline as Alan Pardew's side have been deploying Joel Ward and Martin Kelly - both natural right-backs - at left-back throughout the campaign.
Swansea have apparently lined up Norwich City's Martin Olsson as a potential replacement should they accept Palace's offer for Taylor.
