  • Remi Matthews reveals he's become a Crystal Palace fan after penning new deal

    3 weeks ago | newsshopper.co.uk | Bobby Manzi

    The 31-year-old joined the Eagles on a free transfer in 2021, replacing then third-choice shot-stopper Stephen Henderson. Across his four years at the club, Matthews has featured once, making his Premier League debut in the 87th minute of Palace’s 2-1 defeat to Liverpool in December 2023. Despite having limited time on the pitch, the former Bolton goalkeeper is a prominent character in the dressing room and well-liked by his teammates.

He did, however, feature regularly in the Europa League, making seven appearances before Porto were knocked out by Roma in the play-off round.

    The Eagles took the lead inside ten minutes on Liverpool’s Premier League crowning afternoon when Tyrick Mitchell intercepted Connor Bradley’s loose pass and threaded an incisive through ball to Ismaila Sarr in between the Reds’ split defence. The Senegalese international, one-on-one with Alisson, drove his effort into the bottom corner, and at that point, Palace were tenth in the top flight.

    The 21-year-old was included in Lee Carsley’s preliminary 29-man squad, which will be cut to 23, but has been excluded from early preparations after suffering a concussion during Palace’s FA Cup final victory over Manchester City. Wharton joined Palace from Blackburn in February 2024 in a deal worth up to £22 million.

    1 month ago | newsshopper.co.uk | Bobby Manzi

    The 22-year-old has spent this season on loan at Sheffield United, making 36 appearances en route to this weekend's Championship play-off final. Rak-Sakyi, who is contracted at Palace until 2027, has scored seven times for Chris Wilder's side this season but has completed 90 minutes only once. The Southwark-born winger joined the Palace academy from Chelsea in 2019 as a 17-year-old and made his senior debut in Patrick Vieira's first game in charge – a 3-0 loss to Chelsea in August 2021.
