Returns to Aston Villa
Guessand will return to parent club Aston Villa following the conclusion of his loan spell at Crystal Palace.
Analysis: Guessand contributed one goal and two assists across 916 Premier League minutes combined between his time at Aston Villa in the first half of the season and Crystal Palace from January onward, also winning the Conference League with Palace and the Europa League with Villa to become the first player to win two European trophies in the same season. Guessand arrives back at Villa ahead of the 2026/27 campaign having made 20 Premier League appearances this season, with his future at the club to be determined during the summer window.
Set to lead front line
Guessand has been named in Ivory Coast's World Cup squad and is expected to provide manager Fae with a direct and physical forward option capable of contributing throughout the competition.
Analysis: Guessand ended the club season having spent time at both Aston Villa and on loan at Crystal Palace, contributing four goal and one assist across 35 appearances in all competitions. The striker's pace, aerial ability and physical presence give Ivory Coast a different attacking profile and his Premier League experience gives him the credentials to perform under pressure.
