I’d be fine with Benteke back until the end of the season.
I think our options are limited in signing anyone anyway so why not.
I also don’t think he walked out on anyone and had his best years while he was with us. It didn’t work out for him and we made money on the deal to Liverpool so he doesn’t owe us as far as I’m concerned .

"I won't be ruling out anybody coming in; I won't be ruling out anybody going out; I won't be ruling out nothing happening." - update from Deano today

So there's nothing close, at least not yet, anyway.

Reports that Palace have agreed £16m for Bowen. 

Frustrating if true.  FFP is a bastard.

Could well release Benteke if that's the case

Or maybe he isn't a target?

I can see it now ... 'we tried to sign someone but just couldn't get it over the line. so we'll go with what we have'

4.45pm Saturday, Samatta is out for the rest of the season with a broken leg and Davis pulls his hamstring getting on the coach back

Or maybe we are in for Benteke but it depended on Palace getting the Bowen deal done?

Benteke with Jack behind him would be better than anything 'The Mighty Reds YNWA' or Palace got out of him.
