# Crystal Palace: Luka Milivojevic may leave this summer

**[Crystal Palace](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/crystal-palace-news/) midfielder Luka Milivojevic may depart Selhurst Park this summer, according to [Inside Futbol](https://insidefutbol.com/2022/05/17/exclusive-crystal-palace-star-considering-exit-club-already-showing-keen-interest/559802/).**

### The Lowdown: Milivojevic under Vieira

Milivojevic, who Roy Hodgson labelled as [‘outstanding’](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-5614309/Crystal-Palace-boss-Roy-Hodgson-heaps-praise-Luka-Milivojevic.html), has struggled for regular game time under Patrick Vieira this season.

The 31-year-old has made just [10](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/luka-milivojevic/leistungsdaten/spieler/74300) starts in all competitions this season, the latest of which came against Aston Villa on the weekend.

That was the club captain’s first Premier League [start](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/luka-milivojevic/leistungsdaten/spieler/74300) since February, and as he enters the final 12 months of his Selhurst Park [contract](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/luka-milivojevic/profil/spieler/74300), it looks as if an early exit could be on the cards.

### The Latest: Olympiacos make move

[Inside Futbol](https://insidefutbol.com/2022/05/17/exclusive-crystal-palace-star-considering-exit-club-already-showing-keen-interest/559802/) shared an update on Milivojevic’s future on Tuesday. They claim that former side Olympiacos are keen to bring him back to the club and have already made moves to get a deal in place.

The report adds that Milivojevic is considering his Eagles future and that he could even ask Steve Parish and Co. to terminate his contract.

### The Verdict: Additions needed first

Vieira could be fairly short of midfield options in the summer, with Conor Gallagher set to return to Chelsea following an extremely successful season-long loan.

Cheikhou Kouyate is also out of [contract](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/crystal-palace/kader/verein/873) at the end of June, so if Palace let Milivojevic go, Jairo Riedewald could be the club’s only [senior](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/crystal-palace/kader/verein/873) defensive midfielder on the books.

Therefore, holding midfield additions could be needed first before the club possibly allow Milivojevic, who doesn’t appear to be fancied under Vieira, to cut short his [five-year](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/luka-milivojevic/profil/spieler/74300) Palace stay.
