Do you think Kamada and Wharton both will leave this summer? Kamada contract ends next month. I think if Kamada leaves Palace will probably keep Wharton for one final season. He has a contract till 2029 he will probably not sign a new contract. So I can see Palace selling him in Summer 2027. I hope Lerma stays for another season. Hopefully Doucoure plays more next season but considering how long he is out for next season 2026/27 if he stays fit will mostly be bench appearances coming on last 30 minutes for most games. Also Mateta's contract is up next summer surely Palace will not let him go on a free and they will probably sell him to avoid losing him on a free.
Incomings - hard to see Palace spending a lot of money as they did spend in January (Johnson and Strand Larsen). Guessand could sign permanently in the summer. Who can you see Palace buying this summer? Definitely need another back up LB and RB. If Mitchell or Munoz gets injured who is the back up? Rio Cardines could do a good job as LWB (back up to Mitchell). Also need another DM Hackney would be perfect from Boro. Interesting to see who the manager is and if they stick with the 3-4-2-1 or go to a different formation (4-2-3-1) or (4-3-3). I think both formations could work for Palace.
Current team next season without major transfers (3-4-2-1): Henderson, Richards, Lacroix, Canvot, Mitchell, Wharton, Hughes, Munoz, Sarr, Strand Larsen, Pino
(4-2-3-1): Henderson, Mitchell, Lacroix, Canvot, Munoz, Wharton, Hughes, Sarr, Pino, Guessand, Strand Larsen.
Hopefully Palace improve the squad significantly finishing 15th was poor considering the talent Palace have.
Considering that Guehi, Olise and Eze was sold in the last few years for pure profit Palace should have a lot of headroom to spend (Summer 2026). Also considering this is the summer they will probably sell Mateta (won't sign a new contract) they will look for £25m+ at least. Considering he cost £11m to Palace that would also be huge profit. Also if Wharton does not leave this season, most likely he will leave Summer 2027 bought for about £20m Palace could easily get £50m+ for him if he has another great season. So another huge profit if they decide to sell in Summer 2027. If someone like Lacroix also gets sold next summer another profit on Palace's books. So Palace could easily spend £100-£150m this summer without breaching SCR. But knowing the board it will most likely be £30-£70m max. As long as Palace improve their squad that is the main thing (whether it is free transfers, loan players) the squad requires a lot more depth.
