Crystal Palace are set for a monumental final two weeks of the summer transfer window, with potential exits and signings likely to shape the club’s future.

The Eagles have already been busy in the lead-up to the Premier League season, with Chadi Riad, Daichi Kamada and Ismaila Sarr all making their way to Selhurst Park.

There have been some key exits on the cards as Michael Olise joined Bayern Munich, marking a huge loss for the side.

Rumours have persisted over Marc Guehi to Newcastle, as well as the future of Eberechi Eze and a potential move away from Copers Cope.

Then there is the future of Joachim Andersen, who has been linked with a move to Fulham as he has just two years remaining on his contract with Crystal Palace.

Joachim Andersen to Fulham transfer agreement

A move for Joachim Andersen now appears on the cards as reports have emerged over a possible switch across London to Fulham.

According to The Athletic, Crystal Palace and Fulham have reached an agreement worth up to £30million for Andersen – which includes add-ons.

The Danish international, who previously played for The Cottagers on loan before he sealed a move to The Eagles, is now set to finalise a deal in the final weeks of the window.

With just two years left on his deal, it left Palace in a difficult situation regarding the 28-year-old’s future at the club.

Andersen has made 113 appearances for Crystal Palace in all competitions, scoring three goals and assisting six times.

How Joachim Andersen transfer impacts Crystal Palace

So with Andersen now seemingly set to leave the club, Crystal Palace are left in a difficult position with their squad balance.

While it offers more chances for someone such as Riad, there is also the ongoing situation surrounding Guehi.

The England international is the subject of interest from Newcastle and with just two years remaining on his contract, there are doubts over his place for the future.

Should the Eagles go on to sell him this window too, it leaves Oliver Glasner with few options but to dip back into the transfer market for more strength in depth.

There is little time for some of these deals, though Crystal Palace have been heavily linked with a move for Maxence Lacroix.
