Eberechi Eze and Marc Guehi are both likely to leave Crystal Palace this summer and the club have set out their timeline on any departure.
Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi is of interest to Liverpool, and the defender has a £40million valuation.
Midfielder Eberechi Eze is being pursued by Arsenal and Spurs and the 27-year-old has a £68m release clause in his Crystal Palace contract.
Palace were dealt a blow when the Court of Arbitration for Sport ruled the club could not participate in the Europa League this season and have been demoted to the Europa Conference League; due to the ruling by CAS, Crystal Palace’s transfer plans have taken a hit.
The Eagles would have flown straight into the Europa League league phase, but now they must navigate a play-off to qualify for the Europa Conference League, which Nottingham Forest were supposed to partake in.
Palace are desperate to make the league stages of the Conference League having missed out on Europa League football, meaning they will not sell either Eze or Guehi until the play-off tie has concluded.

Football Insider Verdict
Crystal Palace Chairman Steve Parish has admitted the club want to sell Guehi this summer to avoid losing the defender on a free transfer.

The deadlines proposed for a sale though would leave Palace with limited time to find replacements.
Interested club’s in Eze and Guehi would also be leaving it late to add the players to their squad with the Premier League season well underway.
Palace though are aggrieved at the decision that they cannot play in the Europa League and so not being able to make the Conference League league stage would be a greater blow to the club.
Oliver Glasner has only been able to sign two new players this summer and he needs to be able to add depth to his squad ahead of a campaign in Europe and to greater challenge in the Premier League.
Eze and Guehi are two of the most important players to Palace and their quality could prove the difference in Europe.
