Millwall began pre-season training on June 26 and are now gearing up for their first friendly of the summer against a Crystal Palace side who beat the Lions 3-1 at Selhurst Park in the fifth round of the FA Cup in March en route to winning the competition.

Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta has delivered a new update on social media amid rumours that he could be set to leave the Eagles and join Man United this summer.

Crystal Palace are considered a side to ‘keep an eye on’ when it comes to AC Milan defender Malick Thiaw, with Newcastle United also in the mix. That’s according to Gazzetta dello Sport, who report that Thiaw recently turned down a move to Como,

Huddersfield Town are reportedly leading the chase for Crystal Palace defender Danny Imray. The 21-year-old, an adventurous right-back, joined Palace from non-league outfit Chelmsford City in 2021. He has since starred at youth level for the Eagles, as well as for Chelmsford and Bromley during loan spells.

Both Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest have recent form when it comes to offering young attacking players opportunities. Palace in particular have built a reputation for nurturing young talent under several managers, and McAtee could thrive in that environment.

Crystal Palace’s move for Ousmane Diomande came to a shuddering halt just over a week ago. After the Eagles appeared to be genuinely pushing for a transfer, the Portuguese press put a pause on everything and there hasn’t been much on the case since.
