Double delight for Crystal Palace! Eagles secure Ben Chilwell and Quinten Timber

Crystal Palace have pulled off significant moves in the final moments of the transfer window, securing permanent deals for England international Ben Chilwell and Dutch midfielder Quinten Timber. The club successfully submitted deal sheets to the Premier League before the deadline.

Chilwell returns to Selhurst Park on a permanent basis from French side RC Strasbourg. The 29-year-old full-back, who previously enjoyed a successful loan spell that included winning the FA Cup in 2025, expressed his excitement:

It's amazing to be back. It's nice to see some familiar faces, and I'm just really excited to get back in, see the boys and the fans, and get going again. Ben Chilwell

Joining him is midfielder Quinten Timber, who arrives from Marseille on a five-year contract, adding needed physical and technical depth to the squad. In addition to the international duo, the Eagles have brought in Chilean winger Dario Osorio on a season-long loan from Danish side FC Midtjylland.

These late additions are vital for manager Sage, as the team looks to stabilize following a challenging start to the season. After suffering defeats against Everton and Manchester City, the club is eager to secure its first points of the campaign when they travel to face Fulham at Craven Cottage.
