Stephen Evans

Young winger Steve Evans has moved to Brentford on a free transfer.

Steve Coppell swooped for the promising youngster, who has been signed on a two-year contract.

The 21-year-old left winger was thought to have a bright future at the club after impressing for the reserves since coming up through the youth team.

He made six appearances for the first team and recently spent three months on loan at Swansea City.

Meanwhile, David Woozley could join Evans at the Bees as he was also told to leave Palace, and is in talks with Coppell.

Steve Warren, another player released by the club, has joined Reading on trial and Wayne Carlisle is currently on trial with Motherwell.
