Outstanding’ winger wanted by Crystal Palace is keen on a move, but there’s a problem

Crystal Palace have been linked with a move for Jack Clarke this summer but it looks like the player will not be moving anywhere this summer.

Crystal Palace are looking a bit short of numbers at this current time and right-winger Michael Olise is injured for the foreseeable.

Reports have linked multiple Premier League sides with the winger. Crystal Palace, Brentford, Everton and Burnley are apparently two of the main clubs keen to sign him.

Now, TEAMtalk has shared that Burnley have been told that Jack Clarke is ‘not for sale this summer’. Clarke is ‘keen on a move’ but it looks like he will not get his wish.

Crystal Palace Jack Clarke not for sale

A transfer target of Crystal Palace not being available this summer is not the news they need to hear right now, especially as he’s a player in an area they need.

The ‘simply outstanding‘ winger has tonnes of potential and was one of the best players in the Championship last season with Sunderland.

With Olise currently injured and Wilfried Zaha leaving the club, they have lost their two best wingers. With just over a week until the season starts, the club need to act fast or their squad will look a lot weaker than last season.

This is not what fans would have wanted. They have been battling relegation for well over a decade and fans will want some more ambition next season.

The club have been great in finding recent English Football League talents, but sadly it now looks like they will have to wait or make an astronomical bid if they want Clarke.

Palace will lack a lot of attacking quality for their first game of the season if things don’t change soon. Currently, it looks like they could be heavily relying on Eberechi Eze.

Luke Plange completes transfer to Derby County’s League One rivals

Latest Derby County news from Derbyshire Live brings you news of the former Ram who will face his former club next season

Luke Plange celebrates scoring for Derby County at Stoke City

ormer Derby County striker Luke Plange has sealed a loan move to Carlisle United from Premier League Crystal Palace.

The forward has signed a half-season loan deal with the Cumbrians who are back in League One after winning promotion under Rams hero Paul Simpson last season.

Plange spent time on loan with Lincoln City last season after a spell with Belgian side RWD Molenbeek with the Eagles keen to aid his development by getting him first-team football.

He is yet to make one senior appearance for Palace after leaving Derby in the January transfer window last year, but was immediately sent back to the club on loan to help try to keep them in the Championship under former boss Wayne Rooney.

Plange, 20, had come through Arsenal’s academy before moving to Pride Park in 2021 and he subsequently made his bow in a clash against Bristol City.

He then started his first game in the following game against Blackpool and scored the only goal. He was then crowned Championship player of the month for December. He left Derby having scored four goals in 27 appearances.

Plange will come face to face his former employers this season when Derby make the long trip to face Carlisle on September 23.
