Ángel Torres stated that Christantus Uche is still at Crystal Palace but is expected to return to Getafe when the season ends, as the mandatory option for the player to remain at the English club has expired. Crystal Palace has until May 31 to exercise the purchase option, which is now optional, but it is not expected that this will occur. Torres noted that Uche has received offers from other leagues.

Christantus Uche's loan at Crystal Palace will not become a permanent transfer because he did not make the required number of starts. A return to Getafe is problematic due to the club's large squad and salary cap pressure, and Getafe may need to sell other players to reintegrate Uche. If a permanent transfer to Crystal Palace is not renegotiated, Getafe might have to sell Uche quickly to another club to reduce their wage bill.

According to Marca, Christantus Uche would return to Getafe if Crystal Palace does not exercise a voluntary purchase option. Getafe would then seek a solution during the summer by selling either Uche or another important player to balance the accounts. This course of action is more likely if the team remains in the first division.

A report from Spanish publication AS claims Crystal Palace could send Christantus Uche back to Getafe in January. Christantus Uche does not have a future at the Spanish club, and he is likely to be made available again.
