Crystal Palace’s transfer plans have hit a snag as Odsonne Édouard’s potential move to Nice appears to be stalling. The deal, which was initially thought to be worth £4 million, has been put on hold as Nice explores other options ¹.

Édouard’s Transfer Saga

Édouard, who spent last season on loan at Leicester City, doesn’t seem to be part of Crystal Palace’s plans. His potential exit was seen as a way to generate funds for the club. However, with the deal with Nice stalling, Crystal Palace might need to reconsider their transfer strategy.

Other Crystal Palace Players in Demand

Other Crystal Palace players have been linked with moves away from Selhurst Park, including:
– Eberechi Eze: The winger’s contract situation has sparked interest from top clubs like Tottenham and Arsenal. With a release clause of £68 million, Eze’s exit could be a significant blow to Crystal Palace’s squad.
– Marc Guehi: The defender has been linked with a move away from Crystal Palace, with several suitors queuing up for his services.
– Michael Olise: The forward recently joined Bayern Munich in a deal worth £50.8 million, potentially paving the way for Eze’s exit ².

Crystal Palace’s Upcoming Fixtures

As the transfer drama unfolds, Crystal Palace is set to face several key matches, including ³ ⁴ ⁵:
– Chelsea: August 17, 2025, Premier League match at Stamford Bridge
– Fredrikstad FK: August 21, 2025, UEFA Conference League playoff at Selhurst Park
– Nottingham Forest: August 24, 2025, Premier League match at Selhurst Park
