Zavier Gozo
On Tuesday, it was reported that Crystal Palace are in advanced negotiations to sign 19-year-old American winger Zavier Gozo from Real Salt Lake. The fee is expected to be around $15 million. While an agreement is not yet finalized, discussions are reportedly moving in a positive direction for the player, who also holds Ivorian nationality and has previously indicated his desire to move to Europe. Gozo, a United States U23 international, joined Real Salt Lake in February 2024 on a contract until December 2027 and has scored 6 goals and provided 4 assists in 16 Major League Soccer appearances this season. He has previously attracted interest from clubs including Aston Villa and Atlético Madrid, and his current market value is €6.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
Antoine Mendy
Crystal Palace is monitoring OGC Nice's 22-year-old Senegalese international centre-back, Antoine Mendy, as of Tuesday. The club values his athletic profile and potential. OGC Nice is willing to sell the player this summer to generate funds and will start negotiations for offers of €15 million or more. Fiorentina and Udinese have also inquired about a transfer for Mendy, whose contract with the French club runs until June 2028.
Jayden Oosterwolde
On Tuesday, it was reported that Crystal Palace are interested in signing Fenerbahce defender Jayden Oosterwolde this summer. According to Sabah, the club is preparing a €20 million offer for Oosterwolde. It is not known whether Fenerbahce is prepared to let him leave, though the club could consider selling the player to comply with the foreign players quota rule.
Axel Disasi
The latest update on Tuesday noted that Axel Disasi has not made a competitive appearance for Chelsea since January 2025 and has spent the subsequent 18 months on loan, with a permanent return to West Ham United being a possibility. Disasi has also been linked with Crystal Palace, with an asking price of $33.6 million. On Monday, French reporter Fabrice Hawkins stated that the Eagles are preparing an offer to sign Disasi and have made him their priority replacement for Lacroix, with talks between the two London clubs already underway. RMC also reported on Monday that Crystal Palace consider Disasi their priority following the departure of Maxence Lacroix to the Blues and are attempting to advance negotiations quickly.
Ismaïla Sarr
On Tuesday, Fanatik reported that Fenerbahce and Manchester United are competing to sign 28-year-old winger Ismaïla Sarr. Earlier that day, it was noted that while Manchester United appreciates Sarr's profile, the club must reduce its attacking department before possibly proceeding. It is uncertain if Manchester United's management will decide to take concrete action, and any potential transfer is expected to be very expensive, as Crystal Palace has no intention of selling Sarr for a low price.
David Ozoh
Bundesliga club 1. FC Köln is interested in David Ozoh as a successor for Eric Martel, according to a report on Tuesday. The English defensive midfielder, who spent the previous season on loan at Derby, is under contract until 2027, and a transfer fee of around €5.8 million has reportedly been a topic of discussion. Olympique Marseille, Hull City, and Derby County have also shown interest in the midfielder.
Tyrick Mitchell
According to 90min on Tuesday, Tyrick Mitchell could be a top consideration for Manchester United. His current contract with Crystal Palace is in its final season. Mitchell started 36 of 38 league matches for the club in the 2025–26 season and helped the team win the UEFA Conference League.
