Crystal Palace will have 11 players representing their countries during the forthcoming September-October international window, with fixtures ranging from Nations League matches and World Cup preparations to AFCON qualification and international friendlies.
Daichi Kamada has been included in Japan’s squad for the Kirin Cup in Yokohama and Tokyo, alongside fixtures against Uruguay and Venezuela. Japan will then face Ecuador in the semi-final, before meeting either New Zealand or Panama in the final or third-place play-off. Zavier Gozo has received his first senior USA call-up, joining Chris Richards in Mauricio Pochettino’s squad. The United States will play Peru, Chile, Mexico and Canada, while Richards will look to add to his 40 international caps.
Quinten Timber has been selected by the Netherlands for Nations League fixtures against Germany, Greece and Serbia. The midfielder, who has 13 senior caps, could make his first international appearance since joining Palace. Anan Khalaili is part of Israel’s squad for four Group B3 matches against Kosovo, the Republic of Ireland and Austria.
Jørgen Strand Larsen will be involved as Norway begin their Nations League campaign with matches against Denmark, Portugal and Wales. Yéremy Pino could also return to action for Spain, who face England, Croatia and Czechia in Group A3. Palace defender Honest Ahanor has been named in Italy’s squad for games against Belgium, Türkiye and France, while Jaydee Canvot has been selected for France Under-21s’ European qualifiers against Iceland, Estonia, Luxembourg and Switzerland.
Ismaïla Sarr is included in Senegal’s squad for the opening 2027 AFCON qualifiers against Mozambique and Ethiopia, followed by a friendly against Comoros. DarÃo Osorio completes Palace’s international contingent, with Chile scheduled to face Canada, the USA and Mexico. Osorio could therefore come up against Palace teammates Richards and Gozo when Chile meet the United States in St. Louis.
