Crystal Palace Push To Secure Tyrick Mitchell On Long-Term Contract Before Rivals Circle

Crystal Palace are working hard to tie down Tyrick Mitchell to a significant new deal before his current contract expires next summer.

The 27-year-old left-back has established himself as one of the club’s most dependable performers since breaking into the senior squad in 2020.

Palace are determined to remove any uncertainty around his future and are eager to act before rival clubs sense an opportunity to move.

Former Manchester United chief scout Mick Brown has spoken publicly about how seriously the Eagles are taking the situation.

Brown told Football Insider that Palace are prepared to go to considerable lengths to ensure Mitchell remains at Selhurst Park long term.

“Tyrick Mitchell has been an outstanding player for Crystal Palace,” Brown said, reflecting on the defender’s consistent contributions at the club.

“They will be doing everything in their power to keep him at the club and extend his contract, so I expect there will be a bumper deal in the offing for him in the near future.”

Brown also praised the character Mitchell brings to the squad, noting his professionalism as much as his on-pitch quality.

“He gives you an 8/10 performance every week, he’s always available, never kicks up a fuss or causes any problems, he just gets on with his job and he does it well,” Brown added.

Mitchell’s value to the club was underlined further with a starring performance against Fulham, where he scored twice as Palace came from behind to win 3-2.

The result helped manager Pierre Sage secure his first Premier League victory in charge, with Ben Chilwell eventually scoring the winning goal.

The Guardian highlighted Mitchell’s unlikely brace as one of the standout moments from a dramatic afternoon of Premier League football.

Previous links with clubs such as Arsenal and Manchester United indicate there would be no shortage of interest if Mitchell were available on a free transfer.

Allowing an established England international to run down his deal would be a significant risk for a club that has worked hard to build stability.

Securing Mitchell on a long-term contract makes clear footballing and financial sense for Crystal Palace heading into the second half of the season.
