According to Chelsea's recent plans, Acheampong was meant to serve as a backup for injured captain Reece James. However, with Malo Gusto seeming to be ahead of him in the team's pecking order, it is uncertain whether Acheampong will have a chance to play regularly for Chelsea.
Palace's interest in Acheampong may provide a solution for both clubs. A loan move could allow Acheampong to gain more playing experience and help Palace strengthen their team for the upcoming season.
