After Crystal Palace’s defeat at Sunderland on Saturday, Oliver Glasner said his side were left “completely abandoned” by the club’s hierarchy over the decision to sell Guehi (to Manchester City) so close to a match.

He explained to Sky Sports: “The players gave everything they could. We made no substitutions – look at the bench, there are just kids there.

“We feel like we’re being abandoned completely. Selling our captain one day before a game – there is no understanding for this.”

Oliver Glasner confirmed he will leave the club at the end of the season.
