Zavier Gozo transfer to Crystal Palace

Overview

Crystal Palace completed the signing of 19-year-old American winger and wingback Zavier Gozo from Real Salt Lake for a reported fee of approximately $15 million. The deal represents a club-record sale for Real Salt Lake.

An academy graduate who debuted at age 16, Gozo recorded 10 goals and eight assists across 50 appearances for Real Salt Lake. During the 2026 MLS season, he contributed six goals and five assists in 16 appearances and participated in his first MLS All-Star Game. Born in West Valley and raised in Eagle Mountain, Utah, Gozo is the first player from Utah to reach England’s top flight.

Gozo signed a five-year contract with Crystal Palace, describing the move to South London as a “dream.” While he has not yet earned a senior cap, he is considered a rising prospect for the United States men’s national team under manager Mauricio Pochettino, with a full international debut expected during the September window.
