Wickham’s Palace career has been very frustrating, with numerous injuries disrupting his development at the Eagles.
Understandably, several Eagles fans have voiced their frustration at the news on Twitter.
Liam has simply given up hope that the striker will turn good for Palace.

Rob wonders if there has been a bigger sick note over the past few seasons.
Twitter: @BenDinnery “However, that won’t include Connor Wickham”
. . . . is there a bigger sick note in the last few years ? (@RobHSafc)
Mark thinks that Wickham is simply a waste of space at Palace.
Twitter: @HLTCO It would be a massive shock if Roy said Wickham was fit. Waste of space (@Marknevard2)
@BRL__21 reckons it’s time to sell Wickham, after several injury disrupted seasons at Selhurst Park.
Twitter: It really is time to get rid off Wickham. Stealing a living at this point https://t.co/LjxNo6YTHa (@BRL__21)
@androsisnotbald reckons that Wickham should be on a pay to play contract due to his injury issues.
Twitter: We should have gave wickham one of those pay to play contracts like Andy carroll has. How much has he earned while… https://t.co/SRjKof6R5N (@androsisnotbald)
Read Crystal Palace’s verdict
It would be more surprising to see that Connor Wickham would be fit to play Spurs, rather than this news.
The striker could really do with a change of scenery, as it really doesn’t look like things will work out at Selhurst Park.
Palace have enough problems upfront as it is, and Wickham being injured yet again surely does not help things.
