Reporting by the South London Press
In the latest Football News, departing Crystal Palace forward John-Kymani Gordon is poised to join League Two side Colchester United on a free transfer, reports the South London Press.
Gordon, a product of Crystal Palace’s youth academy, failed to make a significant impact at the senior level with the Premier League club. Over the past year, he was sent out on three separate loan spells, with his last stint being at AFC Wimbledon in League Two, where he featured in 18 games but was unable to help the side secure promotion to League One.
As Crystal Palace announced the list of players to be released at the end of their contracts on June 30th, Gordon was among those names.
However, the 21-year-old forward will not be without a club for long, as he is set to make a move to Colchester United, a team that narrowly avoided relegation from League Two last season.
This transfer is expected to be completed on a free transfer, as Colchester United look to bolster their squad for the upcoming EFL League Two campaign.
The report from the South London Press highlights the ongoing player movements in the world of Football, with young talents like Gordon seeking new opportunities to showcase their skills at the professional level.
Fans and enthusiasts of the sport will be keen to see how Gordon settles in at Colchester United and whether he can make a positive impact in the EFL League Two next season.
