Strong rumour Sakyi signing when window opens on 12:46 - May 24 with 6969 views | PhilTWTD | I'm told he's not one we're currently active on. We were in January and it wouldn't surprise me if he was one looked at over the summer, although I saw a report that Palace were looking at him as a potential member of their first-team squad next season. |  | |  |
Strong rumour Sakyi signing when window opens on 12:46 - May 24 with 6949 views | burnbudgiesburn | Strong rumour = twitter noise I also doubt Sakyi will move anywhere where he is considered just cover |  | |  |
Strong rumour Sakyi signing when window opens on 12:50 - May 24 with 6875 views | TRUE_BLUE123 | If he were to sign he would start/or end up being our first choice right winger. He is someone who CPFC see as good enough to be in and around their first team off the back 23 goal involvements for a poor Charlton team. He would be coming here to play |  |

I didn’t really know who we’d be targeting, but I was certain Aluko was leaving and that’s been turned upside down already and left me with even less certainty on what the bigger plan is from McK. |  |

Perhaps not so much of a surprise when you think about the age of the squad. Not many players over 30 and KMc has said before what an important influence SA is in the dressing room and around the squad. |  | |  |

Still quite a surprise given his lack of game time and his numbers weren't great when he did play. But as you say, it might be more a good egg around the place for the youngsters to look up to. |  |

We might be tight on squad spaces though, I wonder how he'd feel if he was here solely to train with the squad and not registered to play. |  |

Didn't make a matchday squad post Bristol Rovers so think it is still a big surprise considering we were naming 4 forwards on the bench in each game. Do you think any chance it's with a view to not even being registered for the league? |  |

Guess it will depend on what Aluko wants to do too as to whether he accepts the offer. He's not stupid, if he's here to offer a bit of maturity and experience in what is a young group, play in the cups etc and provide some depth then that's fine, but if he wants to be starting a decent chunk of games in what might be his final season in the game then he'll know it's highly unlikely to happen with us. |  |

He comes across as pretty low maintenance and professional.. I'd argue that if hes looking to go into some kind of coaching/ analytical role, then he's around some good people atm.. I like Aluko, think hes an all round good egg. And when has played, hes been quite useful. Notably against Championship oppo' in The Cup. My guess would be him being used in a mentor type role, with the opportunity to fast track himself on the analytics/ coaching side. And as a back up player in an emergency or back up bench option.. |  | |  |

I doubt he'd be interested in that, at the Christchurch Park thing he said he was keen to keep playing for a year at least even if he is now looking at his future beyond that. |  | |  |

Makes sense all round doesn't it. If he had to call on him if have no issue, he's still got the silk even if he's a bit slower but a really useful squad member with a lot of knowledge to impart |  |

It would be a loan, very highly rated at Palace. No chance we'd get him for anything like £1m. |  | |  |

Sorry I'm confused by your comment. If as per your comment 'He is someone who CPFC see as good enough to be in and around their first team' then why would CPFC send him out onloan if he's good enough for their first team? |  | |  |

0 chance JRS is signing for anyone for a million pounds, or signing for anyone on a perm in general. Palace see him as a part of their plans |  |

As Phil has said above, Palace are looking at him as a potential member of their first team squad for next season, think that's been echoed by Palace journos as well. Anyone who think we are signing JRS for a million quid is living in dreamland. |  |

I wonder if he'll even sign the deal as will know he's unlikely to get much game time here - the contract offer may just be a genuine gesture but not fit in with his plans |  |

Perhaps, although if he was dead set against it then the matter would probably have been resolved already and his departure would have been announced. Might depend on what other clubs are offering and if there's a greater chance of playing regularly, I suppose. |  | |  |
