Maxence Lacroix’s future at Wolfsburg is still up in the air, and although he might play for the team later today in their DFB Pokal match, Crystal Palace is still in the hunt for the center back.
Lacroix’s future is still very much out in the air, despite Wolfsburg manager Ralph Hassenhuttl’s recent insistence that the player is “staying” at the club, according to German site WAZ.
Eagles are now making a stronger push for Lacroix, who Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner still wants. According to the source, Wolfsburg has not yet received an offer for Lacroix, but one may be extended shortly.
The defender’s contract expires in the summer of 2025, and Wolfsburg can only make a significant profit from his transfer this summer if he chooses not to renew it.
The 24-year-old is wanted by the German team for €25 million, and it’s likely that Palace will make an offer for him.
According to the article, Wolfsburg would find it “difficult to refuse” an offer beyond €20 million because they would realize a sizable profit from the sale, even if their ideal price would be €25 million.
The explanation provided for the lack of a bid as of yet is that Crystal Palace is awaiting Marc Guehi’s sale, since he may sign with Newcastle United. You can sign Lacroix with the money you saved from that relocation.
