Christantus Uche will remain at Crystal Palace until the end of the season.
The Nigeria international arrived at Selhurst Park from Spanish club Getafe on a season-long loan on deadline day.
Uche has, however, struggled to adapt to his new surroundings.
Crystal Palace has decided to keep Christantus Uche until the season concludes.
Uche joined the Eagles on a season-long loan from LaLiga club Getafe on deadline day.
There were reports that the London club considered sending the player back to Getafe in January.
According to Standard Sport, Palace has no plans to cancel the midfielder’s loan, despite him receiving limited playing time.
The Nigeria international impressed off the bench in Oliver Glasner’s side’s 2-1 victory at Fulham last weekend.
Uche is also eager to remain at Selhurst Park.
The 22-year-old is expected to feature regularly for Palace during the busy festive period, as he is not anticipated to be called up by Nigeria for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
The midfielder has made five league appearances for the Eagles.
