Palace Set to Renew Interest in Sporting CPs Defender Diomande

Crystal Palace Eyes Ousmane Diomande as Possible Replacement for Guehi

Crystal Palace is still showing interest in Sporting CP’s defender Ousmane Diomande.

Potential Replacement

Palace views Diomande as a potential successor for Marc Guehi and kept him as a backup option in case the club’s captain departed during the summer transfer window.

Deal Blocked

In a last-minute decision, Palace prevented Guehi’s transfer to Liverpool on the deadline day, yet they continue to pursue Diomande as a viable option.

Transfer Outlook

Reports suggest that Liverpool remains the frontrunner to acquire Marc Guehi, which keeps Crystal Palace focused on Ousmane Diomande as a primary replacement. Diomande, who is 21 years old, has been with Sporting for the last two years after making the move from FC Midtjylland.
