Chadi Riad is close to joining Crystal Palace for about €14m, according to multiple reports.
Barcelona would receive €3m from Real Betis (the club loaning him this season) and 50 per cent of the final fee agreed between Betis and Palace. That's around €10m in total.
Although Riad still belongs to Barca, Real Betis would trigger the €3m buy-out clause before selling him to Crystal Palace for a much higher fee – but that's a win-win situation for both Betis and Blaugrana anyway.
The centre-back has had an impressive season on loan, also becoming one of Europe's best players in duels won.
Chadi Riad has been part of La Masia since 2019. He made just one first-team appearance – against Osasuna in November 2022.
