Palace goalkeeper edging closer to summer exit

Crystal Palace goalkeeper Steve Mandanda looks to be edging ever closer to an exit from the club this summer.

The Frenchman has had a highly underwhelming tenure in English football so far and has found consistency hard to come by since his highly anticipated exit from Ligue 1 side Marseille.

However, the experienced shot stopper could very well be set for a return to his homeland with his former club.

According to the printed version of leading French news outlet L’Equipe, as cited in a report today by Sport Witness, the Marseille goalkeeping coaches believe that Mandanda is nailed on to make the switch in the summer and return to the club.

It’s stated in the newspaper report that the ‘keeper would regard the move as ‘a dream’, and it’s highly likely that he’ll be heading out of Selhurst Park this summer.

Wayne Hennessey has been Palace’s first choice goalkeeper this season and Mandanda is looking to be closer than ever to leaving.
