"I never threatened to leave the club, never. I didn't have to threaten anybody. There were no bad tensions between the chairman and myself. It was really just a discussion about sports, and he decided against the money and for the sporting perspective of Crystal Palace. Big credit to the chairman."
"It was clear, for him, that he stuck to his contract. It is credit to Marc that he never threatened to strike. He is a very honest person, that is why I was never worried about this situation. He will be our captain as long as he's here, because he's just such a great player and such a great personality."
Oliver Glasner denied reports that he threatened to resign over Marc Guéhi's possible transfer to Liverpool. Glasner said there were no bad tensions with chairman Steve Parish and described the exchange as a sports-focused discussion, praising Parish for prioritising the club's sporting perspective over money. Glasner commended Guéhi for honouring his contract and not threatening to strike, calling him honest and a strong personality who will remain captain while at the club. Summer signing Yeremy Pino could make his first start after debuting as a substitute in the win at Aston Villa.
