Crystal Palace has made an exciting announcement regarding the signing of Japan international Daichi Kamada. Kamada recently left Lazio under bitter circumstances, having signed a one-year deal with the Serie A team last summer. The deal included an option for a significant signing bonus to extend his contract, which he had reportedly agreed to trigger. However, Kamada decided to join Palace after receiving interest from the Premier League club, leading to him being labeled a ‘mercenary’ by Lazio president Claudio Lotitio.
The 27-year-old playmaker has signed a two-year deal with Crystal Palace, reuniting with manager Oliver Glasner. The two had a successful partnership at Eintracht Frankfurt, where they won the Europa League in 2022. Kamada’s move to Palace marks an exciting new chapter in his career, as he looks to make a significant impact in the Premier League. His experience and talent will be a valuable addition to the team as they strive for success in the upcoming season.
