Crystal Palace have completed the signing of Super Eagles midfielder Chrisantus Uche on a season-long loan from La Liga side Getafe, with an obligation to buy. The 22-year-old will wear the No. 12 shirt for the 2025/26 campaign.
Uche becomes Palace’s fifth signing of the summer, joining Walter Benítez, Borna Sosa, Yeremy Pino, and Jaydee Canvot. Chairman Steve Parish described him as an exciting young talent with full international experience, while the player himself called the move “an unbelievable moment” and a big opportunity in his career.
The midfielder’s rise has been rapid, starting in Spain’s fifth tier with Moralo CP in 2022 before moves to AD Ceuta and Getafe, where he impressed with four goals and seven assists in 38 appearances last season.
