Crystal Palace transfer news, rumours, and updates live: Liverpool and Spurs are eyeing Eberechi Eze

Crystal Palace have confirmed the signing of Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah in a deal worth in the region of £30 million and will pen a five-year contract. The homegrown striker was expected to join Marseille earlier this summer but the French club were reluctant to meet Arsenal’s asking price.

A move to Selhurst Park would offer Nketiah more guaranteed minutes in the first-team as he struggled to become Arteta’s preferred choice in the last few seasons. The 25-year-old has scored 38 goals in 168 appearances for the North London club.

“It’s amazing to sign for Crystal Palace — I’m excited to get going,” Nketiah said as part of Crystal Palace’s announcement. “Every time I come back to South London, it always puts a smile on my face, so it’s good to be back home.”

Crystal Palace have completed the signing of Maxence Lacroix from Wolfsburg. The new deal for the Frenchman is of five years. The Eagles will pay an initial £18m for the 24 year old, with add ons potentially taking the deal to £21m.

The defender will partner Marc Guehi at the centre of the Palace defence, replacing Joachim Andersen who moved to Fulham.

The Eagles have agreed to sign Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah on a season-long loan deal with no obligation to buy next summer. Crystal Palace will pay an undisclosed fee for the England international’s services.

The 25-year-old defender has been deemed surplus to Enzo Maresca’s requirements this season and has been told to explore his options in this summer window. Chelsea were desperate to offload the defender and were reportedly seeking £20-25 million for the outcasted academy graduate.

Trevoh Chalobah is set to undergo a medical before finalizing his move to Selhurst Park.

As per a recent report by ‘GiveMeSport‘, backed by ‘David Ornstein’ of ‘The Athletic’, Premier League club Wolves are ‘close to agreeing’ a deal with fellow league rivals Crystal Palace in order to sign goalkeeper Sam Johnstone.

Ornstein further laid out that a deal between both clubs for the goalkeeper could stand around a financial mark of £10 million. Earlier in the transfer window, various reports in the English media pointed out that the Eagles were willing to let Johnstone leave this time around and had made that clear to him.

Wolves, on the other hand, have been also linked with a potential move for Arsenal’s goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale, but reports hailed that a deal for him is highly unlikely to materialize. As things stand, Sam Johnstone is termed to be Old Gold’s number one priority.

The Eagles are reportedly gearing up a move for Liverpool defender Joe Gomez who has been viewed as a direct replacement to Marc Guehi. Guehi has been linked heavily with a move to Newcastle United for several weeks and his transfer could be resolved before the deadline day.

Following Sepp van Der Berge’s transfer to Brentford, Liverpool are now to only four centre-backs with Joe Gomez exploring a move away from Anfield in the final days of the summer window.

Crystal Palace are keen on acquiring the England international’s services who has three years left on his Liverpool contract.

The Reds are currently in the market for defensive and midfield reinforcements but are yet to make their first signing of the summer transfer window. With just four days remaining in the transfer window, Liverpool are planning a late swoop for Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi.

Liverpool could hijack Newcastle United’s move for the England international who has been their No.1 target throughout this summer. The Reds identify Guehi as a long-term replacement for Virgil van Dijk who has entered the final year of his contract.

Crystal Palace are demanding close to £70m for the centre-back and it remains to be seen whether Liverpool are willing to offer such a massive transfer fee.

Arsenal have reportedly decided to accept the bid from Crystal Palace for Eddie Nketiah. The Gunners are keen on selling the striker and were in talks with Nottingham Forest.

As per a report by David Ornstein on The Athletic, Arsenal are set to agree a £30 million deal with Crystal Palace. The Eagles are set to pay £25 million with £5 million in add-ons for the 25-year-old.

Nottingham Forest had also made a similar bid to sign the striker earlier this month. However, talks between the two clubs broke down, similar to when Marseille were interested in signing the Englishman.

As per The Independent, Crystal Palace are reportedly preparing to receive bids from Eberechi Eze from two Premier League clubs, including Liverpool.

The asking price for the attacking midfielder is expected to be a minimum of £60m and potentially closer to £70m, which is around what they wanted for Marc Guehi. Palace have received €60m for Michael Olise from Bayern Munich earlier this summer. Tottenham Hotspur are believed to be the other team in for Eze.

Arsenal forward Eddie Nketiah has been strongly linked with a move away from the Emirates throughout this summer transfer window and his recent agreement with Nottingham Forest collapsed in the final hour.

Earlier this summer, Nketiah was expected to join Marseille on a permanent deal but were unable to match Arsenal’s asking price for the England international. Now, Crystal Palace are considering a move for him, and is expected to leave Arsenal in the coming days.

The Eagles had a long-standing interest in the 25-year-old forward and are favourites to sign the Arsenal academy graduate.

Premier League club Fulham has completed the transfer move for defender Joachim Anderson from Crystal Palace on a five-year deal. As per ‘Sky Sports’, the transfer has cost the Cottagers a monetary sum of around £30 million (excluding any potential add-ons).

Anderson has of course played for Fulham before on a loan spell. His arrival back to the London-based club on a permanent basis will provide Marco Silva’s side with defensive solidity and options to progress ahead in the ongoing Premier League season.

Fulham looked a bit lite in the defensive department ever since the departure of Tosin Adarabioyo to Chelsea earlier this window.

Joachim Anderson is expected to be competing with players like Calvin Bassey, and Issa Diop straightaway for a place in the starting line-up.
