Crystal Palace has announced the signing of Japan international Daichi Kamada on a two-year deal. The 27-year-old playmaker recently left Lazio under bitter circumstances after signing a one-year deal with the Serie A team last summer. 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.
Kamada’s move to Palace reunites him with manager Oliver Glasner, with whom he had a successful partnership at Eintracht Frankfurt, where they won the Europa League in 2022. This marks an exciting new chapter in his career as he looks to make a significant impact in the Premier League. With his experience and talent, Kamada will be a valuable addition to the team as they strive for success in the upcoming season.
