Winger Bakary Sako has re-signed for Crystal Palace on a short-term deal.

The 30-year-old joins from Championship outfit West Bromwich Albion and will stay in South London until the end of the season.

He was released by the Eagles last summer after failing to agree terms on a new contract, but after a spell in the Midlands, is delighted to be back with the Eagles.

"I'm so happy to be back at Palace," he told the Palace website. "I felt like I had some unfinished business here because I was really enjoying my football but a couple of injuries stopped that momentum.

"I have many great memories of playing for the club in front of our amazing fans. We have a great bunch of lads in the squad, and a very experienced manager who I learned a lot from last season. I can't wait to pull on the shirt again and the return could not be better for me."

Boss Roy Hodgson added: "He’s a player with a huge amount of talent and as he showed when he was fully fit last year, he is able to provide a boost to our attacking options."

The Mali international first joined Palace on a free transfer in August 2015 and played 50 games, scoring eight goals.
