Crystal Palace Academy forward Zach Marsh has signed a professional contract with the club.

The 17-year-old is predominantly a centre-forward, though he also has experience playing on the left or right side of the front three when needed. He joined the club in February 2022 and mainly featured for Palace’s Under-16s last season.

In the 2022/23 pre-season, he was part of the Under-17s side which won a tournament against Manchester United, Bayern Munich and Dundee United.

Since then Marsh has been in fine form for Rob Quinn’s Under-18s so far this season, scoring once and registering three assists in his first five games.

After putting pen to paper on his new deal with the club, Marsh said: “It’s amazing. This is something I’ve always dreamed of. When I was younger, I thought this would be just a dream, but it’s become a reality now.”

Academy Director Gary Issott added: "Zach is a talented forward who has worked hard to earn his first professional contract. Though he only joined the club in February, he has adapted well to life here in south London.

“He has hit the ground running this season for the Under-18s and he will no doubt press on in the season ahead and beyond.”
