# Crystal Palace: Fans react to Nathan Ferguson update

**Crystal Palace will have to pay West Brom just £900,000 for defender Nathan Ferguson following a tribunal, [The Athletic](https://theathletic.com/news/crystal-palace-west-brom-nathan-ferguson/HNfyu0aY2lia/) report.**

And, as to be expected, a number of Palace supporters have been sharing their thoughts on the transfer news on social media.

The 21-year-old was set to make the move to Selhurst Park back in January 2020 in a deal worth an initial [£8m](https://theathletic.com/news/crystal-palace-west-brom-nathan-ferguson/HNfyu0aY2lia/). However, that fell through due to a failed medical, with Ferguson then joining the club in the summer when his Baggies contract expired.

Ferguson is still [yet](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/nathan-ferguson/leistungsdaten/spieler/507254) to play for Palace due to various injury issues but has since returned to light training. It has now been reported that the Eagles will have to hand over just [£900,000](https://theathletic.com/news/crystal-palace-west-brom-nathan-ferguson/HNfyu0aY2lia/) to West Brom, with no right of appeal from the Championship side.

### Palace fans react

Palace correspondent [Matt Woosnam](https://twitter.com/MattWoosie/status/1455947716543098888) shared the news on Wednesday evening. It didn’t take long for Eagles fans to interact with the news, with one labelling it as ‘incredible’ given the gap between the initial £8m valuation and the eventual cost of the deal.

**“Eze, Olise and Ferguson for a combined fee of \<£30m is sensational business from the club. Let’s hope Ferguson can stay fit”**

**“Palace are at it again with low prices for quality players with lots of talent and potential. This could end up being a massive steal if Ferguson ends up being a key player for us and plays well on the pitch.”**

**“Hopefully we’ll see Ferguson fit and playing soon. Incredible business though, given what WBA wanted.”**

**“Let’s all just take a minute to remember how angry everyone at #cpfc was when John Bostock left for £700k under a tribunal to Spurs. Whilst this benefits Palace, it’s clear to everyone that £900,000 is not a fair fee for Nathan Ferguson. The tribunal system is a joke”**

**“£900k? He’s done it again”**
