Crystal Palace signs Andros Townsend for £13m from Newcastle United


Crystal Palace have signed midfielder Andros Townsend from Newcastle for £13m on a five-year deal.


The 24-year-old England winger has completed his move back to the Premier League, with Dwight Gayle going in the opposite direction in a separate deal.

                     

Townsend scored four times in 13 games for Newcastle, having joined from Tottenham for £12m in January.

"I'm extremely delighted and pleased to be a part of Crystal Palace's future," he said.

Palace chairman Steve Parish said: "It's fantastic that we've managed to get a player of Andros' quality into the club. He has played in the Premier League for a number of years and represented England.

"I can't wait to see him in a red and blue shirt in the very near future."
