Yéremy Pino

Key strength: Pace and dribbling

Wide creator

Crystal Palace find themselves in 14th place, their DWLWL form capturing the inconsistency of a side still adapting to Oliver Glasner's demanding vision. Yet amid the turbulence, a spark of genuine excitement has arrived: Yéremy Pino, the 23-year-old Spanish winger whose €30m deadline-day signing has already appreciated to €35m before he's truly settled at Selhurst Park. The numbers hint at untapped brilliance—5 goals and 5 assists across 38 career appearances for a player whose explosive pace and devastating 1v1 dribbling mark him as an inverted right winger in the modern mold. Having already completed a full 90-minute debut, those trademark driving runs are beginning to stretch Premier League defenses. What makes this particularly fascinating is Ismaïla Sarr's presence—Palace's established 80-rated right-sided threat. Rather than mere competition, Glasner envisions a frontline bristling with unpredictable wide creators who can interchange and overwhelm. With a contract running until 2030, Palace haven't simply bought a player; they've invested in the electrifying spontaneity that could yet ignite their season.
