Dos Santos, who has Portuguese heritage, only began playing football two years ago and his rise from Sunday League football has been meteoric.
Finnegan, who used to play for Palace, says Neil Warnock is in the driving seat to sign the youngster ahead of interest from Portsmouth, Fulham, Charlton, QPR, Norwich and Ipswich.
He said: "He is currently at Crystal Palace and to be honest it would be a great move for him to go there, they have a young and talented squad and you know if you do well there you will get your chance."
