Crystal Palace release Jacob Bekeley-Agypong; retains Jeffrey Schlupp

Crystal Palace released Ghanaian youngster Jacob Berkeley-Agyapong while retaining the services of Jeffery Schlupp ahead of the upcoming season.

Schlupp, who joined the Eagles two seasons ago from Leicester City, has established himself as a key cog with his marauding display on the left flank.

The Ghanaian left-back’s season was wrecked by niggling injuries - which limited his influence in the team.

However, Palace gaffer Roy Hodgson will be counting on the Ghana international as he named in the squad list for the coming season.

Meanwhile, the club did not exercise the option to renew the contract of Jacob Berkeley-Agyapong following the end of his contract.

The 21-year-old midfielder spent last season on the fringes.
