    Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner has given his blessing to the sales of both Marc Guehi and Eberechi Eze this summer to fund an overhaul of the squad.

    Guehi is certain to leave as he has just 12 months left on his contract with former club Chelsea, Tottenham, and Newcastle are ready to bid.

    Eze could also depart Selhurst Park as he has two years remaining on his contract.

    A £ 60 million release clause can be activated by rival clubs at the end of the season.

    Glasner is understood to be relaxed about both potential sales as he is planning significant changes at the FA Cup finalists.

    The Austrian has asked the club for up to six new players this summer, as he wants to make Palace even more physically dominant, and is ready to sacrifice Eze if necessary.

    While Palace have delighted fans by reaching the FA Cup final against Man City at Wembley this month, Glasner has been disappointed at times by his side’s inconsistency.

    The 50-year-old wants players who are prepared to work harder off the ball, with Sunderland’s Jobe Bellingham expected to be a target if the Championship club are not promoted.
