On Friday, Crystal Palace confirmed that Ghana international Jeffery Schlupp has extended his stay with the Premier League outfit, signing a contract extension.
Despite struggling with injuries throughout the 2019-20 campaign, Schlupp made 17 league appearances for the Eagles, who finished the season in 14th place.
However, Schlupp ended the season on a high note, scoring a crucial goal in a 1-1 draw against Tottenham Hotspur on July 26.
Reflecting on his time at Selhurst Park, Schlupp said, “Last season was a difficult one at times due to injuries. However, I’m delighted to have finished it off with a goal against Spurs, feeling 100% and extending my time with the club. I’m already looking forward to hitting the ground running in a few weeks’ time when the season restarts.”
Schlupp joined Crystal Palace in January 2017, signing a four-and-a-half-year deal from Leicester City.
