Oliver Glasner insists Marc Guehi has to stay at Crystal Palace for at least their Conference League play-off second leg but Steve Parish says letting players leave for free is “not ideal”.
Liverpool are interested in signing Guehi, who has entered the final year of his contract, while Palace are also set to lose Eberechi Eze to Arsenal after a deal was agreed on Wednesday.
Guehi started and captained Palace to a 1-0 victory in the first leg of their Conference League tie against Fredrikstad on Thursday night, but the registration deadline has since passed, meaning no new signings can feature in the second leg next week.
Glasner joked he is considering filling in at centre-back if Guehi were to leave before then amid his concerns over the lack of depth in his squad.
“We are very, very late. It’s 10 days to go [until the transfer window closes] to find the right replacements,” said Glasner. “I think we could have done much better than we did. It’s no criticism, it’s just telling facts.

“Today, we had 17 on-field players available. One from the academy, two players we already told that they should leave the club. So that means we’re with 14 and having six games from the 10th of August until the 31st.
“This group, I know we can rely on them. I trust them completely. But it’s really not the best way you should start into the season. With the results, third game, no defeat, that’s all good. But I think we are below the edge.
“I just know if Marc leaves and is not available for Frederikstad, we will have big troubles. That’s pretty clear. We can’t register anyone. So from my side, he has to stay.
Oliver Glasner confirms that Eberechi Eze will not play for Crystal Palace again during his post-match press conference
“We played with Jeff Lerma in the back today. He’s a midfield player. We have no centre-back available at the moment. If Marc leaves, I will try my boots because I was a centre-back, and this could be a good option. I will think about it.”
But in contrast, Parish said: “If Marc wants to sign a contract, then he can stay!
“It is a difficult situation. If you are in Europe, the financial rules are a lot tighter than in the Premier League.
“Players leaving on a free is not ideal. We will have to look at it over the next 11 days.”
‘Not replacing Eze sooner is our fault’
Glasner also hit out at Palace over not replacing Eze sooner.
“I can’t do anything. I can’t sign the players. I can’t sign a player’s contract. So we have to act. We need this. This is Crystal Palace’s future,” he said.
Eberechi Eze was spotted leaving Selhurst Park after Crystal Palace’s match against Fredrikstad.
“We need to add not numbers. It’s easy to add 10 numbers. We need the right players. The profile is defined for months. It’s not surprising for everyone that Ebs left. Honestly, it’s not surprising.
“Five days earlier, we couldn’t have done anything if he leaves. We knew that the chance was very high that this would happen. Honestly, and I say it like it is, we missed replacing him early enough. That’s completely our fault and nobody else’s fault.”
‘We will look to get the quality we can’
On Eze’s departure, Parish added: “We have to move past it. He has been fantastic for us and we are pleased he will go on to fulfill his ambitions.
“We have to find other players to support the team and Oliver Glasner. We will bring in players, it is about finding the right players.
“I don’t think Oliver wants too many, I think it is the right number. It is about getting the balance right, we are a bit thin anyway. We are working on what we are working on and will look to get the quality we can.
“We are very lucky with Oliver because he is very involved, he is a very data-driven manager. He is very specific about what he wants.”

Fantasy football rankings 2025: Top sleepers, busts, breakouts by model that projected C.J. Stroud’s down year
Only in sports is 30 considered old, and that's especially the case for NFL running backs. A number of ball carriers are turning that age this year including Alvin Kamara, James Conner, Nick Chubb and Austin Ekeler. That fact alone will cause many to downgrade them in 2025 Fantasy football rankings. However, turning 30 didn't negatively affect Derrick Henry or Aaron Jones last year, so how much stock should you put in a running back's age when doing Fantasy football 2025 draft prep?In the case of Conner, he's getting better as he ages as he's increased his rushing yards in each of the last five years. The old adage of age just being a number has some merit with NFL running backs as recent performance should carry more weight. What other 2025 Fantasy football advice would serve you well ahead […]

Odvrácené mečboly s Běloruskou, divoká jízda proti Rusce. Mladé sparťanky jsou blízko hlavní soutěži US Open
Jednadvacetiletá Šalková (162. na světě) má v New Yorku poprvé nakročeno mezi 128 účastnic úvodní rundy. Ve dvouapůlhodinovém zápase s Běloruskou Kristinou Dmitrukovou (237.) předvedla spoustu chyb, ale i ohromnou vůli a neutuchající odvahu. Soupeřku nakonec udolala 6:3, 5:7, 7:6, když ve třetí sadě odvrátila čtyři mečboly.Ve chvílích, kdy se ocitla na hraně, se opatrnicky nestáhla a do míčků prala s ještě větší vervou. Ve dvanácté hře rozhodující sady, která trvala jedenáct minut a stav šedl osmkrát přes shodu, se to vyplatilo náramně.Mečbol č.1: Žádný zanďour. Šalková vyrazila na síť a na dvakrát zakončovala.Mečbol č.2: Přidalo se i štěstí. Míček z české rakety lízl síť a následoval nechytatelný forhend.
