Crystal Palace’s transfer stance on Jeffrey Schlupp after he scores wonder goal vs Wolves

Crystal Palace have had a busy summer, but it could yet get busier as Jeffrey Schlupp’s transfer stance has been revealed.

This summer is going well for Crystal Palace with only one key player lost, while three excellent signings have been made – as Ismaila Sarr is confirmed.

Heading the other way, we have seen Michael Olise leave but that is all in terms of noteworthy departures, although there are still over four weeks left in the window – in which Dougie Freedman will want plenty of work to be done.

Rumours are flying around over several names being linked with moves away – including Marc Guehi and Ebere Eze, who would both be substantial misses.

But now it is being reported that the Eagles would be willing to sell another player this summer – despite his impressive pre-season form.

Crystal Palace would sell Jeffrey Schlupp if they got an offer

One player that Crystal Palace are now reported to have an interest in selling is Jeffrey Schlupp, with the long-serving versatile player potentially heading for the exit doors this summer.

This comes according to the Standard, which reports that if a reasonable offer were to arrive for Schlupp, the Eagles would be inclined to let him go.

Schlupp only signed a one-year contract extension a few months back, but it seems this wasn’t due to Palace wanting to keep him.

He is not the only name surprisingly being linked with a move away from Selhurst Park with Jordan Ayew the subject of interest from Leicester City.

What should Palace do with Schlupp?

So with it emerging that Palace would let Schlupp go if they got a decent offer, the question stands of whether this is the correct decision by the Eagles.

Schlupp has scored two in two over the past week, with his strike against Wolves showcasing just how well he can strike a ball.

He is proving himself repeatedly to be a player worth keeping in Oliver Glasner’s squad, despite not being flashy, he still always gives a 6/10 at minimum.

Palace aren’t spoilt for options with depth lacking, and therefore keeping the German at least one more year until he can really be replaced is a wise move.
