Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner has provided an update on Marc Guehi and Eberechi Eze amid transfer speculation. Both players have been linked with moves to top clubs, with Liverpool reportedly interested in signing Guehi and Tottenham and Arsenal vying for Eze.

Marc Guehi Update

Guehi, who has been linked with a move to Liverpool, is entering the final year of his contract at Crystal Palace. Glasner believes Guehi is “100% focused” on the club, despite the transfer rumors. The defender has been valued at around £40 million by Palace, who would prefer to sell him this summer rather than risk losing him on a free transfer next year ¹ ².

Eberechi Eze Update

Eze’s future has been a topic of speculation, with Arsenal and Tottenham reportedly interested in signing him. Glasner remains confident that Eze will continue to perform well for Palace, despite a slow start to the season. He believes Eze has been unlucky and that his numbers will improve as the season progresses ³.

Glasner’s Comments

Glasner has emphasized the importance of both Guehi and Eze to the team, praising their talent and contributions to Palace’s success. He stated that the club needs to make new signings this summer to strengthen the squad, but is optimistic about retaining key players ².

Potential Impact

The potential sale of Guehi and Eze could have a significant impact on Palace’s squad dynamics and finances. If Guehi leaves on a free transfer next summer, Palace would receive no transfer fee for one of their prized assets. Similarly, Eze’s departure could trigger a significant financial loss for the club, given their reported £68 million valuation ¹.

Upcoming Matches
