Crystal Palace are set for a busy January window as the club are willing to back Oliver Glasner and address its issues with new players.
According to Football Insider, Crystal Palace are set to use the transfer window to make moves for players in several positions and address their problems. The club is eager to back its under-fire manager despite a difficult start to the season, as some positions need reinforcements.
Crystal Palace continued to drop points this season and have only one win in their opening 12 games in the new Premier League campaign. Their solitary victory came against Tottenham Hotspur a few weeks ago, although their displays have improved.
Palace currently finds themselves second to bottom in the table, and they had the chance to get out at the weekend. However, in a pulsating game against Aston Villa, they could only see their defence conceding once again as Unai Emery’s side crawled to a draw.
That game also exposed a lack of depth, as recent injuries to summer arrival Eddie Nketiah and key midfielder Eberechi Eze have weakened them further. They also lost Michael Olise in the summer, and some may argue they need a presence in the wide attacking areas due to the Frenchman’s absence.
In any case, the pressure has come on Oliver Glasner to change their fortunes, with some corners also suggesting that they could part ways with him. However, the Eagles are keen to back the Austrian and use the transfer window to address their ongoing issues by bringing in critical reinforcements in January.
Palace to target new players
There have been links to many players, but Glasner might target a defender as well as an attacker while also keeping together the squad assembled so far. There are links to Chelsea outcast Ben Chilwell, while there are loose links to Benfica star Tomas Araujo ahead of January.
There are some links to Manchester United’s Antony, which would seem to address their wide issues. Whether they will make a move for the Brazilian remains to be seen, as Borussia Dortmund Jamie Bynoe-Gittens’ name is also on their list. However, the latter seems like a very ambitious idea.
