adminCrystal Palace are reportedly targeting a move for a six-cap England international who has previously caught the attention of Ian Wright, with his current club now open to letting him leave.
Palace consider new addition amid Glasner criticism
Crystal Palace were held to a second consecutive 0-0 draw at the weekend, this time against 10-man Leeds United at Selhurst Park. Despite the stalemate, manager Oliver Glasner has pushed back against claims that his team are dull to watch.
Glasner expressed frustration at the level of criticism, arguing it is unfair to expect Palace to consistently deliver high-scoring, entertaining performances.
He pointed out that such attacking displays have only come in brief spells, particularly when Eberechi Eze and Michael Olise featured together in attack. He also stressed that the club’s most successful periods have been built on a strong defensive foundation.
Even so, the closing stages of Glasner’s tenure have been underwhelming, with tensions rising between the manager and supporters, including boos from fans during the away match at Zrinjski Mostar.
Palace target Myles Lewis-Skelly
While uncertainty remains over who could replace the 51-year-old, Palace have already begun identifying potential summer recruits—particularly at left-back.
Reports suggest they are interested in Myles Lewis-Skelly of Arsenal, who is also attracting attention from West Ham United and Everton. Arsenal are believed to be open to a loan deal, making a move increasingly feasible.
Lewis-Skelly has already earned widespread praise, with Ian Wright highlighting his standout performance against Real Madrid in the Champions League, where he impressed against top talents including Rodrygo and Jude Bellingham.
The young defender also made headlines in Arsenal’s emphatic 5-1 win over Manchester City, getting on the scoresheet in a dominant display. Described as “spectacular” by Jamie Carragher, the 19-year-old has already racked up 65 appearances for Arsenal, contributing one goal and six assists, and is seen as a player who could thrive at Selhurst Park.
