Crystal Palace showed interest in Christos Tzolis and reportedly made a bid of over 30 million euros for the winger. Club Brugge clearly stated that Tzolis is not for sale, and the transfer was put on hold until at least the summer of 2026. The offer was rejected despite the substantial amount.

Christos Tzolis, a crucial player for Club Brugge, joined the team from Fortuna Düsseldorf a year ago. Although he recently extended his contract with Club Brugge until 2029, Crystal Palace has expressed interest in acquiring him after Eberechi Eze's move to Arsenal FC. The FA Cup winners are eager to bolster their attacking options and have made a significant offer to Club Brugge for Tzolis. Nonetheless, Club Brugge has stated their intention to keep Tzolis this transfer window. Tzolis is reportedly interested in the potential move but respects the club's decision to retain him. Despite this situation, Palace's coach Oliver Glasner is advocating for a last-minute attempt to sign Tzolis, amidst internal debates at Palace about whether to focus their efforts on Tzolis or Yeremy Pino from Villarreal.

Club Brugge rejected a 32 million euro offer from Crystal Palace for Christos Tzolis. Despite the opportunity for Tzolis to earn 2.5 times more, Club Brugge decided not to sell, aiming to build a structural story around him. Tzolis recently extended his contract until 2029, with an increased salary. The decision was partly emotional as Tzolis feels good in Brugge and appreciates his connection with Dévy Rigaux, who brought him to Belgium.

Club Brugge rejected a bid of 32 million euros from Crystal Palace for Christos Tzolis, who they see as the ideal replacement for Eberechi Eze. However, it is expected that Club Brugge might agree to a transfer for around 40 million euros.
