Crystal Palace have been looking to continue their good run of form, which they found at the very end of the last term, helping them to secure the 14th position and one more season to stay and fight in the top flight. The Eagles are looking to make most of the opportunity and are willing to finish in a better position this season on the league table.
The South London club are eyeing a number of players to be brought into the side for the new term and one of them is the Newcastle United goalkeeper Freddie Woodman. The youngster has been one of the most promising players in the Toon camp and is set to be sent on loan for this season to give him more first team experience.
The 20-year-old has been in sensational form in the last season for his club as well as country. He represented England in the recently concluded Under 20 World Cup and played valiantly to earn his team the trophy and himself the much coveted Golden Glove award. This has put him in the centre of attraction for a number of clubs including the likes of Crystal Palace and Everton.
Woodman has been one of the best players between the sticks owing to his ball handing capability and his leadership skills. In addition to that, he has a very cool head on his shoulders and is capable of making the right decision at the right time to keep the opponent strikers at bay. He is also known not to lose his composure in the most adverse of situations and make a number of crucial saves to keep his team in advantage.
The English youngster has been one of the best young shot stoppers in the current situation and has irked interest from a number of clubs from Premier League as well as Championship. He has been on the radar of the new man in charge at Selhurst Park, Franck de Boer, as the Dutchman looks to revamp his team for the new season.
Woodman has been one of the players who originally came out of the football academy of Crystal Palace and was signed by the Magpies. The English goalkeeper might be interested in a reunion with the senior side of his former club and play a crucial role in the new season to safeguard the team’s goal and keep the opposition players at bay.
