Crystal Palace are set to sign Oscar Mingueza after reaching an agreement to bring the Spain international to Selhurst Park on a free transfer. Multiple reports say Mingueza, 27, is currently a free agent following the end of his contract with Celta Vigo, which expired last month, leaving him without a club. The deal is described as being subject to standard paperwork and international clearance.

One outlet also frames the move as a verbal agreement reached with the player, with the expectation that the transfer will be completed following the administrative process. Mingueza is previously known for playing for Barcelona’s senior and/or youth system, and the reports identify him as a former Barcelona defender.

Across the sources, the central points are consistent: Palace are pursuing Mingueza, the transfer does not involve a fee, and completion depends on clearance, with his most recent club Celta Vigo providing the link to his free-agent status.
