100 Years of Selhurst Park

> Centre-back Maxence Lacroix joined Palace on transfer deadline day in August 2024, signing a five-year deal.

The 24-year-old central defender becomes our fourth signing of the transfer window, and heads to the Premier League after four seasons in the German top-flight. He will wear the No. 5 shirt for Palace.

Lacroix made his professional debut with French side Sochaux, before moving to Wolfsburg to work under Oliver Glasner, where he helped the club to qualify for the UEFA Champions League in his first campaign.

He made a total of 130 appearances for Die Wölfe, playing in both the Champions League and the Europa League, and scored seven times – including four last season. Now, he reunites with Glasner in South London.

Palace Chairman Steve Parish said: “We have watched Maxence play at the very highest level of European football and we are delighted to be able to welcome him to Selhurst Park.

“He is another young, talented player to add to the club, and I am sure he will prove himself to be a valuable asset for Oliver and the squad.”

Lacroix said: “It’s like a dream for a young football player. I’m really happy to be here and arrive at this good team.

“I watched Palace’s last games and I was really happy for the coach, because I’d played under him before. I think it’s the right moment to move to the Premier League.”

Lacroix made his debut for Palace against Leicester City at Selhurst Park in September 2024.

Oliver Glasner's Eagles will take on Mikel Arteta's side at the Emirates Stadium at **19:30 GMT** on **Wednesday, 18th December**.

The match will be broadcast live in the UK on Sky Sports.

Ticketing information will be announced via club channels in due course.

Palace have overcome Norwich City, Queens Park Rangers and Aston Villa to reach this stage of the competition – our first League Cup quarter-final since 2011/12, when Palace knocked out Manchester United at Old Trafford.

The Eagles last met Arsenal in the League Cup in 1992/93, when the North London side progressed through a two-legged semi-final.

Once again, any matches which end in a draw at this stage will go straight to penalties; extra-time is only used in the Carabao Cup from the semi-finals onwards.

The date has now been confirmed for Crystal Palace's Carabao Cup quarter-final trip to Arsenal.
