Sako was released by Crystal Palace at the end of last season and joined West Brom on a free transfer.

The winger, however, only played 180 minute of action for West Brom, scoring the winner against Wigan in the FA Cup earlier this month.

He re-joins Palace after scoring eight goals in 50 appearances for the club from 2015 to 2018 – after joining from Wolves on a free transfer.

The 30-year-old has been capped 21 times by Mali at international level, with an impressive return of nine goals for his country.
