Hall made his Premier League last November and would go onto make 11 appearances for the Blues during the 2022/23 campaign.
In a horrific season, the 18-year-old was a rare bright spot for Chelsea, impressing whenever he played and eventually winning the club’s Academy Player of the Year award.
Over the summer, his contract was extended to 2026 but with strong competition from Ben Chilwell and Marc Cucurella, the left-back’s short-term future is expected to be away from Stamford Bridge.
Palace have had an interest in signing Hall, who can also play in midfield, since back in May, with cover needed for Tyrick Mitchell – the only natural left-back at Selhurst Park.
That need has exemplified in recent weeks after Mitchell was injured in pre-season and the 23-year-old now faces a race against time to be fit for the start of the new campaign.
As a result, the South London Press report that the Eagles are in talks with Chelsea over bringing Hall in on loan but not before the teenager pens a new deal with his boyhood club.
The Blues are keen to tie down their brightest and best young talents, recently agreeing new a long-term contract with star defender Levi Colwill.
Palace have had great success with loanees from Chelsea in the past, namely Conor Gallagher, Michy Batshuayi and Ruben Loftus-Cheek.
So far this summer, the South Londoners have bought in just one player – Jefferson Lerma – leading to Roy Hodgson to publicly demand more signings.
Matheus Franca is set to join from Flamengo, while The Telegraph report that they are in talks with Bayer Leverkusen for Odilon Kossounou who is wanted on an initial loan with an obligation to buy next summer.
Capable of playing as a centre-back and right-back, the Ivory Coast international could be viewed as either Joel Ward’s successor or a potential replacement for either Marc Guehi or Joachim Andersen.
Both centre-backs have been linked with a move, especially Guehi who is attracting interest from former club Chelsea as well as Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham.
