French duo join the race to sign Yohan Cabaye

Monaco and Marseille are both interested in signing Yohan Cabaye as he heads into his last year of his contract at Selhurst Park, as per the Guardian.

Cabaye joined Palace in 2015 for £13 million from Paris Saint-Germain and has made 75 appearances for the Eagles since, scoring 10 goals for the club and assisting five times.

With the arrival of Ruben Loftus-Cheek and new manager Frank De Boer favouring Jason Puncheon to partner Loftus-Cheek in the Dutchman’s 3-4-3 system, Cabaye may want to leave for regular first-team football, especially with the 2018 World Cup in Russia just around the corner.

Palace also want to free up some wages in the squad to bring in more new signings before the deadline, and if they do not see Cabaye as a first-team player then they would want to move him as one of the club’s top earners.

Cabaye has had two stints in Ligue 1 after coming through the ranks at Lille and joining PSG from Newcastle in January 2014 for £22 million after impressing for the Magpies.
