Crystal Palace is on the hunt for an ideal replacement for Michael Olise, with Antonio Nusa emerging as a potential candidate.
Olise’s departure this summer was anticipated, giving Palace ample time to scout for a suitable successor.
Since his exit was confirmed, several players with similar playing styles have been linked to the club.
However, the potential replacements vary in terms of cost and availability. Recent reports suggest Palace is considering Antonio Nusa.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Palace is indeed interested in Nusa, but his £25 million price tag is seen as expensive.
Romano states that Palace is evaluating whether to pursue this option.
Despite the cost concerns surrounding Nusa, Romano confirms that Palace will definitely sign a winger this summer, considering various possibilities.
The high price for Nusa might explain recent Portuguese reports of a bid for Marcus Edwards.
Nusa, along with Matias Soule, is considered a top-tier talent and should be Palace’s primary choice to replace Olise, followed by Jaden Philogene.
At just 19, Nusa has already drawn comparisons to Erling Haaland, highlighting his potential.
The article argues that Palace should make a significant investment in a proper replacement this summer, suggesting it’s the least they can do for manager Oliver Glasner.
