Benteke agent expects Crystal Palace stay

The agent of Christian Benteke says he's ready to stay and fight for his future at Crystal Palace.

Benteke is staying at Crystal Palace for the remainder of the season, according to his agent Kismet Eris.

“Christian told me before the beginning of the season that, whatever happened, he would stay at Crystal Palace because of his preparation for the World Cup, but also to provide stability for his family, and so on," he told Sport Witness.

“We had several opportunities to leave, but his decision since the end of the last campaign was to stay at Palace.

"Christian hasn't shown or told me anything that suggests he wants to leave. Nothing will happen until the end of the season. He wants to stay until then minimum, and then we will see."
