Palace agreed a £16million fee with Hull for Bowen, but West Ham outbid them.

Earlier on Friday West Ham’s move for the 23-year-old stalled over personal terms, but the deal was eventually able to go ahead.

Bowen, who can play on the right wing or up front, scored 54 goals in 131 appearances for Hull in total since making his debut in 2014. He joined Hull from Hereford United in 2013.
