League Two AFC Wimbledon are plotting a loan move for Crystal Palace striker Ademola Ola-Adebomi, the News Shopper understands. 

The Dons hold a firm interest in the forward who spent the first half of the season on loan at SK Beveren.

Ola-Adebomi was expected to spend the season with Beveren. However, his loan was curtailed at Crystal Palace’s sister club after a lack of minutes in the Belgian second tier.

The Lewisham-born attacker made nine appearances under Marinik Reedijk but failed to find the back of the net.

He sustained a shoulder injury during Beveren's 1-1 draw with RSCA Futures in October but has now fully recovered despite initially anticipating being sidelined for several months.

In the second half of last season, the 21-year-old helped Burton Albion survive in League One, registering three-goal contributions on loan at the Brewers.

AFC Wimbledon — who sit fifth in League Two — hope to bolster their forward line this month with the play-offs in their sights.
