Crystal Palace have several stars jetting off with their nations for international tournaments this summer, with Copa America 2024 taking place.

The Eagles ended their campaign on a high note, pushing away any relegation concerns to record a top-half finish.

In total, eight Crystal Palace stars got the call-up to join their country in pushing for glory over the summer, with three of those taking place in the Copa America.
