Mandanda arrives at the Palace

Crystal Palace have secured the signing of French goalkeeper Steve Mandanda on a three year deal.

Mandanda joins the Eagles from Marseille where he made 443 appearances over nine seasons with the club.

During that time Mandanda helped Marseille win one league title and three French League Cups.

The 31-year-old's arrival might well see the departure of Wayne Hennessey or Alex McCarthy, as Julian Speroni has signed up for another year in SE25.

He is currently with the French squad at Euro 2016.

Steve Parish told the official Palace website: "I'm delighted that we have been able to bring Steve into the Club. He brings a wealth of experience at both club and international level to us, and boasts a proven track record when it comes to winning trophies.

"I'm sure the Palace fans will enjoy watching him in action for us over the next few years."

Watch some fantastic saves from Mandanda over the 2015/16 season.
