# Vicente Guaita pens new three-year deal at Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace [have announced](https://www.cpfc.co.uk/news/2021/february/vicente-guaita-earns-crystal-palace-contract-extension-to-june-2023/) that [Vicente Guaita](https://readcrystalpalace.com/2020/04/06/palace-fans-express-their-love-for-guaita-following-post/) has agreed a new deal to  keep the Spaniard at Selhurst Park until 2023.

The goalkeeper signed a three-year deal and there is also an option to extend that by a further year built into the contract.

Since [joining on a free transfer](https://www.theguardian.com/football/2018/feb/02/football-crystal-palace-getafe-vicente-guaita-goalkeeper) from Getafe in 2018, Guaita has [made 80 appearances](https://www.cpfc.co.uk/news/2021/february/vicente-guaita-earns-crystal-palace-contract-extension-to-june-2023/) for the Eagles, keeping [24 clean sheets](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/vicente-guaita/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/64399/verein/873) in the process. He has also won the accolade of the club’s Player of the Month award on [four occasions](https://www.cpfc.co.uk/news/2021/february/vicente-guaita-earns-crystal-palace-contract-extension-to-june-2023/) in his Palace career.

Guaita [expressed his delight](https://www.cpfc.co.uk/news/2021/february/vicente-guaita-earns-crystal-palace-contract-extension-to-june-2023/) at extending his stay in the English capital upon putting pen to paper, citing the fans, coaches and his family as key motivators in extending his stay:

> My family is really settled here in south London, and I have enjoyed my time with Roy, Deano, all the coaches, and my teammates playing in the Premier League, and have a great relationship with the fans of Crystal Palace.

Chairman Steve Parish added: “I am delighted that Vicente has committed his future to Crystal Palace. He is an extremely talented goalkeeper whose contribution has been invaluable over the last few seasons and I am sure will continue to be so in the upcoming months and years.”
