Crystal Palace has strengthened its goalkeeping options by signing Walter Benitez from PSV Eindhoven on a free transfer. The 32-year-old has signed a two-year deal and will compete with Dean Henderson and Remi Matthews for the starting role. Last season, Benitez played a crucial role for PSV, helping them secure the Eredivisie title by keeping nine clean sheets. His experience will be valuable as Palace enters a busy campaign, including their debut in European competitions after winning the FA Cup.
Walter is an excellent addition to our squad, bringing further quality, experience and competition to our goalkeeping department. We look forward to welcoming Walter next month.
Benitez kept nine clean sheets in the top flight, conceding 39 goals and averaging a save percentage of 61.39%, bringing solid performance for PSV last season.
The 32-year-old was an ever-present for PSV's league campaign last season as Peter Bosz's side clinched their 26th Eredivisie crown, showcasing his reliability.
