Crystal Palace have reached an agreement to retain the services of Evann Guessand on a permanent basis, with Aston Villa now expected to rubber stamp the transfer that will see the 24 year old forward remain at Selhurst Park beyond this season. The Nigerian international, who moved to south London on loan in the January window after failing to command a regular starting berth at Villa Park, has given a good account of himself in the limited minutes afforded to him. The powers that be at Palace, convinced by his resilience and clinical instincts in front of goal, have moved swiftly to trigger the clause that makes his stay permanent. While the exact financial details remain under wraps, GoalZaza understands the deal is valued in the region of. ��2.8 billion, a sum that represents the lion's share of what Villa originally paid for his signature. For Guessand, this is the opportunity to finally nail down a major role in the Premier League and show the football world what the Super Eagles talisman can truly achieve when given the confidence and consistent run of games. In the scheme of things, this transfer could prove a masterstroke for a Palace side looking to build a formidable attacking unit for the seasons ahead.
