Correcaminos de la UAT Overview

Crystal Palace lined up a first European campaign on the back of their historic FA Cup win in 2025 and are now bound for the Conference League final. That is not the competition that they expected to grace, but a protracted qualification squabble with Premier League rivals Nottingham Forest delivered a change of plans. Ex-Eagles star Clinton Morrison has told GOAL why there should not be any regrets in south London or the East Midlands.

USMNT center back Chris Richards, a presumptive starter at the World Cup, needed help walking off the field after Crystal Palace's match against Brentford on Sunday afternoon. Manager Oliver Glasner later confirmed that Richards sustained an ankle injury after colliding with Brentford striker Igor Thiago. Richards is expected to recover within a week.

Crystal Palace will have set an asking price for Adam Wharton, Clinton Morrison has told GOAL, with it possible that Conference League glory will not be enough to keep the Manchester United and Liverpool-linked midfielder at Selhurst Park. Interest in the talented 22-year-old is expected to be formalised during the summer transfer window, with a big-money deal on the cards.

Brennan Johnson only joined Crystal Palace in a club-record £35 million ($47m) deal during the January transfer window of 2026, but could the Wales international go “home” to Nottingham Forest over the summer? Former Eagles striker Clinton Morrison doubts that a deal will be done, but has told GOAL why nothing can be ruled out as changes on and off the field are lined up at Selhurst Park.
