This statement was made just hours after Crystal Palace created a surprise at Wembley, defeating Liverpool on the penalty pen to enhance the title of the Super Cup on Sunday. This is the second trophy of the “eagle” in just 86 days, after the FA Cup championship in May. This victory partly helped the club temporarily forget the legal battle waiting for the judgment of the sports arbitration court (CAS) on Monday, to determine they will attend the Europa League or Conference League this season.

Marc Guihi's contract will be due to the end of the season, and Liverpool is said to be the leading candidate to recruit England center -backs. When asked if he was ready to negotiate a 25 -year -old player in the next three weeks, Parish frankly: “Of course, it is necessary to consider. If such a high -class player goes out in the form of freedom, it is a big problem, undeniable.”
He revealed that Palace received an offer last summer but was forced to keep Guehi by Joachim Andersen moving to Fulham. By January, another offer appeared but the situation was complicated and the player also had its own opinion. “Now, we need either a new contract, or have to go to a certain end.”Parish said.
In Wembley, Guehi was cramps and left the field at the end of the second half, giving way to Justin Devenny. The 21-year-old star is the one who then successfully shot the penalty to decide, setting a victory 3-2 after the penalty shootout for Palace.
Coach Oliver Glasner asserted that Palace needs at least two quality rookies even before taking into account the farewell. In addition to Guehi, other pillars like Eberechi Eze are also being looked at by big teams.
Parish emphasized: “Football is exchanging players. If you only keep everything without thinking for the future, you will fall back. We need wise decisions, especially when the transfer fee is now too crazy.
