Latest Fantasy Rumors
Assessing options for next season
Guessand is uncertain about which club he'll play for in the 2026/27 season, according to The London Evening Standard.
ANALYSIS
Guessand spent the second half of the 2025/26 season at Crystal Palace, but he has to return to Aston Villa for the 2026/27 campaign. However, the Villains aren't keen on keeping him around, so he's likely to leave the club again, either on loan or on a permanent transfer. His future will be decided after the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
