Overview
- Palace say the transfer is a club record, with reports placing the fee at £43m plus £5m in add-ons, and Strand Larsen will wear the No. 22 shirt.
- Wolves confirmed the 25-year-old’s departure after 18 months at Molineux, where he initially arrived from Celta Vigo before making the move permanent.
- The deal was completed independently of Mateta’s situation, as the forward remains at Palace after Milan pulled out during medical checks.
- Strand Larsen scored 14 Premier League goals last season but has just one league goal this campaign, a dip Palace hope to reverse under Oliver Glasner.
- Palace’s late-window activity also included a failed attempt to sign Everton winger Dwight McNeil, and Strand Larsen could make his debut at Brighton on Sunday.
