W460

Crystal Palace has signed France midfielder Yohan Cabaye from Paris Saint-Germain on a three-year deal.

Both clubs announced the move Friday for an undisclosed fee. Palace is thought to have paid a club record £10 million ($15.5 million) for the 29-year-old.

Cabaye says "I can't wait to focus on my new team, a new season and my new life."

The move sees Cabaye reunited with former manager Alan Pardew, who he worked under for two-and-a-half years at Newcastle before leaving for PSG in January 2014.

Cabaye adds "I'm confident with him. I want to do my best for him because he's made a big effort to get me to come here."

Cabaye made 56 appearances for PSG, winning two French league titles and helping the side to a domestic treble last campaign.
