Crystal Palace targeting new arrivals
da esoccer bet： Given how the season started for Palace, it is amazing to see that they have a great chance of finishing in the top 10 in the Premier League, and they now have an FA Cup tie against Fulham to look forward to, with a place in the semi-finals up for grabs.

He’s ready to leave his current club…
And, even with plenty of things left to play for, the Eagles are also starting to draw up plans for the summer. It could be a busy few months for the South Londoners as players like Jean-Philippe Mateta, Adam Wharton, and Marc Guehi have been linked with moves away from Selhurst Park, so replacements could be on the cards.
Guehi is reportedly of interest to Chelsea, and with speculation likely to increase once again this summer, Palace are battling to sign Taylor Harwood-Bellis from Southampton as a potential replacement. The defender is ready to leave the Saints as they look all but confirmed to return to the second tier after one season in the top flight.
As well as looking at a new defender, the Eagles are also said to be interested in signing a new midfielder, with Watford’s Edo Kayembe a potential replacement for Wharton, who has been linked with a move to Manchester United. Kayembe is not the only midfield option, as Palace are also plotting a swoop to sign Hayden Hackney from Middlesbrough.
Oliver Glasner's Crystal Palace future comes under threat
But the Eagles’ plans for the summer could soon be halted, as according to Sky Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg, RB Leipzig have made Glasner a target to replace Marco Rose at the end of the season.
Plettenberg states that the plan is for Rose to leave the German side at the end of the campaign, after what has been a disappointing season, but he could also leave before that depending on results. That said, Glasner has been placed on a three-man shortlist by Red Bull‘s Global Head of Soccer, Jürgen Klopp.
As well as Glasner being of interest, Leipzig are also interested in Roger Schmidt and Sebastian Hoeneß, who has been vastly impressive at Stuttgart, and he is considered to be one of the top candidates, which may be good news for Palace.

Glasner has been at Selhurst Park since February last year, and it has been a more than decent 12 months for the Austrian, as he took the Eagles away from the relegation zone in style last season.
He has also done the same in this 2024/25 campaign, after what was a very disappointing start, and now has a chance to book a place in the FA Cup semi-final. Glasner has taken charge of 47 Palace matches and is averaging 1.66 points per game.
His contract at Selhurst Park runs until the summer of 2026, so with the Premier League side having no plans to move him on, their concentration may be on renewing Glanser’s deal before looking at transfers.
