Crystal Palace is in talks to sign Real Betis defender Chadi Riad for more than £10 million, with potential add-ons. The 20-year-old, who previously played for Barcelona, impressed in the 2023-24 season with 30 appearances. Riad, who has represented Morocco twice, most recently played in a goalless draw against Mauritania in March.
Meanwhile, Crystal Palace’s Marc Guehi is attracting interest from various clubs, including Manchester United. The English defender, who is part of Gareth Southgate’s provisional Euro 2024 squad, has just two years left on his current contract. Despite the speculation, Guehi continues to perform consistently on the field.
The Eagles ended the season strongly, winning six out of their last seven matches. Their impressive form saw them secure a 10th place finish in the Premier League, accumulating a record 49 points. As they look towards the upcoming transfer window, Crystal Palace aims to strengthen their squad further to build on their successful campaign.
