# Palace goalkeeper signs new deal

Crystal Palace goalkeeper Julian Speroni has signed a new one-year contract to keep him at the club for the 2017/18 campaign, the [Croydon Advertiser](https://www.croydonadvertiser.co.uk/crystal-palace-legend-signs-new-one-year-deal-to-remain-at-selhurst-park/story-30331757-detail/story.html) have reported.

The Argentinian is something of a cult hero at Selhurst Park and his deal at the club was set to expire at the end of next month, bringing a close to his impressive 13-year tenure with the Eagles.

However, Speroni has penned a new deal at the club and will remain within the ranks ahead of the coming season.

Palace secured their safety on Sunday afternoon with a comprehensive 4-0 win at home against Hull, and Sam Allardyce confirmed in his post-match interview that Speroni is to be kept hold of for a further season.

The 37-year-old has been inevitably pushed out of contention and Wayne Hennessey is the first choice goalkeeper at the club, but he’s a good figure to have around the place and the news of a new deal is positive.
