Connor Wickham Extends Contract With Crystal Palace Until June 2021

Crystal Palace have announced that striker Connor Wickham has signed a new contract with the club, keeping him in south London until June 2021.

Wickham, who joined the Eagles from Sunderland in 2015 for a fee in the region of £9m, had just a year left on his previous deal before the new terms were agreed.

In an official statement on the club's website, it was confirmed: "Crystal Palace are delighted to confirm that Connor Wickham has put pen to paper on a contract extension which will run until June 2021.

"As with much of his time at Palace, Wickham has been hampered by injury this season, making just eight appearances across competitions, though he did score that memorable opener against Tottenham in the FA Cup fourth round victory back in January.
