Overview
- Reports this week say Crystal Palace have opened behind-the-scenes talks to offer Tyrick Mitchell a long-term, high-value contract as his current deal runs until next summer.
- The club’s urgency follows Mitchell’s two-goal performance in Palace’s 3-2 comeback win at Craven Cottage, a display that has increased his market leverage.
- Former Manchester United chief scout Mick Brown told outlets Palace are prepared to make a ‘bumper’ offer to reward Mitchell’s consistency and professionalism.
- Sources say Mitchell is happy at Selhurst Park and is willing to discuss terms, but no new agreement has been formally announced.
- Securing Mitchell would protect Palace from losing an established England international for no fee and fits a wider club strategy of renewing deals for key players to preserve squad stability.
