Overview
- Oliver Glasner told players he will leave at season’s end after having informed chairman Steve Parish in October, stressing the choice was made months ago.
- Glasner said Guéhi’s move is in its final stages and confirmed the captain will not face Sunderland, with multiple outlets reporting an initial fee of about £20m plus add-ons.
- Reports from ESPN, the BBC and The Athletic say Guéhi is set to sign a five-and-a-half-year deal at Manchester City.
- City accelerated talks following injuries to Josko Gvardiol and Ruben Dias, while Palace opted to sell now rather than risk losing Guéhi for free in the summer.
- Chelsea are expected to receive a sell-on payment under a prior clause, and Palace have started sounding out managerial candidates as speculation links Glasner to top vacancies.
