Glasner Slams Palace Over Eve-of-Match Guehi Sale, Confirms End-of-Season Exit

He blamed the eve-of-match decision to advance captain Marc Guehi’s reported move to Manchester City for leaving a thin bench during a 10-game winless run.

Overview

  • Marc Guehi is set to join Manchester City for around £20m, with Oliver Glasner saying he was told of the sale at 10:30am on Friday.
  • Glasner said the squad "feel like we're being abandoned completely" and criticised selling the captain one day before a Premier League game.
  • After a 2-1 defeat at Sunderland, Crystal Palace’s winless run reached ten matches as Glasner made no substitutions with a bench filled by youngsters.
  • The manager confirmed he will not renew his contract and will leave at the end of the season, pledging to remain in charge until the campaign concludes.
  • Glasner referenced the summer departure of Eberechi Eze, saying the team had its "heart ripped out" twice this season by late-timed exits.
