Report: Crystal Palace launch bid to sign Yohan Cabaye
A reunion between Alan Pardew and Yohan Cabaye could reportedly be on the horizon.
According to ESPN FC, Crystal Palace launched a valiant bid to sign Cabaye, one that certainty indicates the club's desire to establish themselves among the Premier League's elite.
Cabaye, who made only 13 Ligue 1 starts for Paris Saint-Germain in 2014-15 due to a mix or injuries and a limited role, voiced his frustration at featuring as a substitute near the beginning of his first season at the Parc des Princes, saying, "I am not satisfied with the situation. Am I completely happy? To be honest, no."
As he continued to be used as a substitute, Cabaye suffered a groin injury on Valentine's Day and was out until March, when he then sustained an ankle injury only 13 minutes into his return, keeping him on the sidelines for another few weeks.
It was clearly a season to forgot for the 29-year-old, and a move to Palace doesn't seem like a stretch given Cabaye's relationship with Pardew at Newcastle United.
