Ivorian international Evann Guessand is set to leave Aston Villa very soon. The club has reached an agreement with Crystal Palace.

Just six months after joining Aston Villa, Evann Guessand is already on his way out. The Ivorian striker has struggled to find his rhythm and, with his upcoming participation in AFCON 2025, his playing time has diminished even further. Despite showing flashes of promise in the Europa League, the former Nice forward is now poised for a move to Crystal Palace.

According to Foot Mercato, the two Premier League clubs have reached a verbal agreement for the Ivorian international to move on loan with a purchase option.
