Agent spotted at Crystal Palace after apparent meeting with ‘close associates’ of Eagles heirarchy.
Montpellier winger Othmane Maamma’s agent has been spotted visiting Crystal Palace, after being seen alongside close associates of Steve Parish.
That’s according to journalist Sacha Tavolieri, who reports that the agent visited Crystal Palace’s English offices today.
The journalist reports that Jibril Oualane, who is the owner of Wilders Sport, was spotted a few weeks ago attending Montpellier vs Brest alongside ‘close associates’ of Crystal Palace’s president.
He doesn’t name Steve Parish as the president, but that is the role he currently fills at Selhurst Park.
Either way, after that, Oualane has now visited the English club’s offices today and posted about this on Instagram, tagging himself at their training ground. Tavolieri includes a screenshot of this image in his post on X.
He says it is a ‘wait and see’ situation around the 19-year-old winger, who has four appearances, totalling 117 minutes, and one assist in them in total this season.
His current contract with the French side runs until June 2027 and he only joined them in July of this year but has seemingly done enough to earn attention from Crystal Palace ahead of January.
