Crystal Palace won their first major trophy by lifting the FA Cup in May. A subsequent dispute over a Europa League spot failed and resulted in demotion to the Conference League. Eberechi Eze appears set to join Arsenal after missing Palace's Conference League game, and manager Oliver Glasner said he will not play for the club anymore. Centre-back Marc Guehi faces continued transfer speculation and is in the final year of his contract, risking a free departure next summer. Chairman Steve Parish said players may need to be sold to comply with financial rules and that contract willingness would influence Guehi's future. Tension has emerged between Glasner and Parish over transfer decisions.
The glory of lifting their first-ever major trophy by winning the FA Cup final in May was followed by protracted wrangling about whether or not they would be able to claim the Europa League spot that would usually come as an additional reward. Palace's case failed, which has led to them being demoted into the Conference League instead - and now they look like they could lose two of their best players with less than a fortnight left in the transfer window.

That could bring Glasner into conflict with chairman Steve Parish, with the pair seemingly holding different views on what the best decision is for the club.
