Crystal Palace linked with Salt Lake winger Zavier Gozo

Zavier Gozo, the United States and Ivory Coast winger at Salt Lake, has been linked with a move to Premier League club Crystal Palace.

Gozo, 19, has made 16 Major League Soccer appearances in 2026, scoring six goals and providing four assists. He has started 94% of Salt Lake’s possible league matches and has been involved in 34% of the club’s goals.

The right winger’s market value is listed at €6m, although no transfer fee has been reported for a potential move to Palace. The Premier League club are being linked with the player as he continues his first full season as an established member of Salt Lake’s senior side.

Gozo joined Salt Lake from Real Monarchs in February 2024 and spent part of the following season on loan with the club before returning at the end of March 2025. He was born in West Valley City, Utah, and holds United States and Ivory Coast nationality.

He remains under contract with Salt Lake until 31 December 2027, meaning any move would require an agreement between the clubs rather than a free transfer.
