The Guardian now saying deal with PSG and Palace agreed in principal with Cabaye wanting to see evidence of our transfer ambition. they also say he expects to give us an answer next week. In your own time Yohan. Just been reading this...surely he himself is an example of our ambition?! Maybe we should throw in bids for Remy, Austin, Phillips, Van Dijk and Casillas - that would have to be considered pretty ambitious wouldn't it?!

Our success in recent years has been built upon team spirit and bringing in players that considered joining Palace a step forwards in their careers and bought into the ideals and values of the club. I'm not sure Cabaye is going to do that.

Perhaps he's waiting for us to put in a bid for Pogba.

Here's the Guardian article: Yohan Cabaye mulls over Crystal Palace move after deal agreed with PSG Crystal Palace have reached agreement in principle with Paris Saint-Germain over the purchase of Yohan Cabaye, with the France international expected to confirm next week whether he will return to the Premier League. Talks between the Palace co-chairman Steve Parish and PSG have been positive, with the fee involved to secure Cabaye expected to top £10m and, therefore, constitute a club record. The 29-year-old worked with Alan Pardew during a successful stint at Newcastle and is attracted to the idea of joining his former manager, though it is understood he is also seeking evidence of Palace’s ambition, particularly in the transfer market. The midfielder would be the club’s first addition during the summer window, with Palace’s moves into the market to date limited to securing Brede Hangeland on a one-year deal and tying down James McArthur to new terms. They have expressed interest in a number of players, from Chelsea’s Loïc Rémy to Matt Phillips and Charlie Austin at Queens Park Rangers, but Parish admitted over the weekend that securing personnel aimed at consolidating last season’s 10th-place finish – the joint second-highest in the club’s history – represented uncharted territory for the owners. “Yohan Cabaye is definitely one we’d like to do,” the co-chairman told TalkSport. “It would be a massive thing for the club because he’s a seasoned international. But getting the top players is difficult. It’s a difficult transfer market right now. It’s a bit blocked up, no one really wants to go first, no one wants to set the valuation. We’ve finished 10th, we’ve done well but we want to do better than that. For us to get into the top 10 in the Premier League, we’ve got to be bringing in people that are top-10 Premier League players. It’s not easy, because everyone wants those players.” Cabaye flourished under Pardew on Tyneside after a move from Lille in 2011 before signing for PSG for £19m in January 2014. He started only 13 Ligue 1 games last season and grew concerned over a lack of first-team opportunities, which will affect his chances of making Didier Deschamps’ national squad for next summer’s European Championship in his homeland. Those frustrations were made clear to the PSG manager, Laurent Blanc, and the club have indicated a willingness to sel, not least because Uefa have relaxed their financial fair play restrictions on the Parc des Princes club, allowing them to re-enter the market more proactively to add to their ranks. West Ham United, who can offer Europa League football, have also checked on Cabaye’s availability and could yet declare an interest, with Palace hopeful no suitors who will compete in next season’s Champions League emerge.

If this is true and it appears he's waiting on a possible better offer then I can't blame him really. And before I get jumped on that's not a dig at Palace or our ambition. He's 29, at the peak of his playing career and this move might be his last chance of playing Champions League football. I can understand why he would want to wait a little to see if another offer comes in that can give him that opportunity. If of course he goes to West Ham then he's tosser.

Beginning to think it's time to tell this bloke to jog on. He either wants to rejoin Super Al or he doesn't.

This might explain an earlier post that someone made that CP Are hoping to announce two signings together (Cabaye) and another. Presumably the other signing would 'demonstrate the club's ambition' Hope so anyway!

As i've said before on this thread i think Cabaye is waiting for other clubs to show interest. In my opinion it's getting to the point we give him a deadline or the deals of. We are giving him the chance to play for a top ten premier league club and to prove himself worthy of a place in the French squad for next years euro's. I'd give him till friday or the deals off.
