Top clubs already watching him. 🦅 Palace wants to keep him, but a record-breaking move isn’t off the table. ⏳ Wait&See… #mercato #CPFC pic.twitter.com/NCrOpwqQvw— Sacha Tavolieri (@sachatavolieri) March 19, 2026 View Tweet The Austrian was keen to sign Canvot last summer, and he heaped praise on his abilities in November after handing him a maiden Premier League start.He said: “I see him in training, what he can do. He has pace, he’s tall.

He’s comfortable in the build-up. “That’s why we signed him and now it’s for him, giving him time, step by step, helping him to become the best Jaydee he can be.”Speaking exclusively to Football Insider last month, Keith Hackett slammed Canvot for the way he celebrated Gabriel Gudmundsson’s red card in their draw with Leeds.Palace will hope that his lack of experience and immaturity are what stand in the way of a possible move away this summer, but they seem like the only reasons why a top club won’t come in for him in the next few months. 🦅 Don’t Miss a Beat: Your Crystal Palace Insider Access Get the full story from Selhurst Park and Beckenham with our dedicated expert hubs: Updated 24/7 with expert analysis from the heart of South London.
