Palace Looking for a New Central Defender

Following the recent transfer of Marc Guehi to Manchester City, Crystal Palace is on the hunt for a new centre-back.

Internal Discussions at Palace

The young defender from Chelsea is among several players being considered by Palace’s management.

While no official negotiations have commenced between the two clubs yet, sources indicate that the rapport between Chelsea and Crystal Palace remains strong, thanks to a history of player transfers between the two sides in recent years.

Last season, Chelsea’s Trevoh Chalobah and Ben Chilwell were both loaned to Palace. Prior to that, players like Marc Guehi and Conor Gallagher also made similar moves.
