Bayern Munich’s official website has announced that 22-year-old Chris Richards will be moving to Crystal Palace. According to rumours, the fee could be anywhere between 12-20 millions euros.

Hasan “Brazzo” Salihamidžic, reminiscing on the American’s history at the club, had this to say: “Chris Richards came with 18 years of age to Bayern. He demonstrated how talented he was during his year playing for our reserve team. [Bayern II].”

Bayern II and Richards took the 3. Liga title in that year was a feat no other reserve team had achieved in Germany. Richards made his debut in the Bayern team’s final game against SC Freiburg. The achievements didn’t stop there. He was one of the few young players, alongside the likes of Musiala, that witnessed Bayern’s Champions League triumph in 2020 from the stands and celebrated with the team when the trophy was lifted.

Richards was clearly a popular choice with the Bayern bosses. Salihamidžic continues: “Therefore, we signed him permanently from FC Dallas. Richards did really well while on loan at FC Dallas. [TSG] Hoffenheim.”

He did. He made 28 appearances, as he showed the world in one of the most important leagues in the country how great he is. And all of that now leads him to Crystal Palace, where he will compete to finally become a regular starter at his permanent club, among Patrick Vieira’s men.

Salihamidžic: “It was [Richards’]He has a great desire to leave the Premier League and succeed. We wanted to make that possible for him and wish him all the best at Crystal Palace.”

Crystal Palace, take care of him. Please, tell me what you can do more than just making Ted Lasso references.
