# Crystal Palace: Fans react to Jack Butland transfer update

**[Crystal Palace](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league/crystal-palace/) were having a quiet end to the domestic transfer window, with no real movements for any player. However, there has been a fresh transfer update which suggests that the Eagles might strike a deal for [Jack Butland](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tag/jack-butland/) today.**

The Eagles are worried about the severity of the injury to substitute goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey, who was injured this week on international duty with Wales. With the 33-year-old set to be [sidelined until next year,](https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/crystal-palace-jack-butland-transfer-wayne-hennessey-injured-a4571836.html) Palace are now looking to Butland as a replacement.

According to [London News Online](https://londonnewsonline.co.uk/) and as tweeted by [cpfc\_xtra](https://twitter.com/cpfc_xtra/status/1316883736433250306?s=20), Palace need to complete a deal (which will be permanent) before today’s 5pm deadline. Also, the [Daily Mail](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8845439/Jack-Butland-line-reunion-Roy-Hodgson-Crystal-Palace.html) have reported of how contact with Stoke was made last night and a deal is expected to be sorted out before the transfer window closes at 5pm.

The Stoke City goalkeeper, who has featured for England [nine times](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jack-butland/nationalmannschaft/spieler/128899/verein_id/3299), has Premier League experience and has made 275 appearances in all competitions in his career, per [Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jack-butland/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/128899). He has [not featured for the Potters this season](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jack-butland/leistungsdaten/spieler/128899) and is now seen as cover at the bet365 Stadium. He may then get a new lease of like under Roy Hodgson, so the transfer makes sense if Palace can get a cheap deal for him.
