Crystal Palace could reportedly let Jefferson Lerma go as he attracts transfer interest from Turkish giants Besiktas.The Colombia international has done well during his time at Selhurst Park, but it seems there are some doubts about his role under new manager Pierre Sage.According to Colombia.com, Lerma is someone who could be leaving Palace even after the transfer window for Premier League clubs and most European leagues closed.Clubs in Turkey can still make signings, and it seems Besiktas are one of the suitors emerging for Lerma.The 31-year-old previously also impressed at Bournemouth before his move to Palace in 2023, but it now seems increasingly like this time with the Eagles is coming to an end.Jefferson Lerma of Crystal Palace in the pre-match warm-up (Photo by Matt McNulty/Getty Images)Crystal Palace’s squad for 2026/27 – do they have enough?Palace have had a difficult few months, with previous manager Oliver Glasner leaving the club at the end of last season, while a number of players have left.In the end, it was a relief for Palace that Ismaila Sarr and Adam Wharton didn’t move this summer, but Lerma could now follow Daniel Munoz in leaving the south London outfit.Maxence Lacroix was also snapped up by Chelsea, leaving a major hole in their defence just a few months after Marc Guehi was poached by Manchester City.More Stories / Latest NewsFabrizio Romano exclusive: Tottenham star wants transfer after triple-your-money offerSep 4 2026, 12:48Liverpool problems exposed as manager names two players who “are a walking nightmare”Sep 4 2026, 12:30Report: Crystal Palace star attracting transfer interest from TurkeySep 4 2026, 12:20Overall, Palace probably still have a strong squad, but it’s considerably weaker than what they’ve had in recent years, and it might mean they’re going to become relegation strugglers in the Premier League this season.Want more CaughtOffside coverage?
