Head of Sports Science on mid-season tour

On training, Head of Sports Science Mike Eglon told Palace TV: "We gave the lads a bit of time away to mentally refresh and physically refresh. Gave them a winter programme to do for one week and had a good of training last week, with a couple of double sessions to get them back in the swing of things.

"Now we're here in Turkey we have a really good games programme, playing Trabzonspor and Napoli, so it'll be tough opposition and hopefully a good week."

The lads left from Copers Cope early on Sunday morning and landed that evening, before travelling to the Regnum Carya hotel and relaxing with the England v Senegal game on. You can see them arrive and start training in the gallery below.

This is the south Londoners' third trip to Turkey, having previously competed in Samsun in the 1998 Intertoto Cup and played two friendlies there in 1995. The Eagles have never faced Napoli or Trabzonspor, however.

Both matches will be broadcast live via Palace TV+, which you can find out more about here.
