Bolasie would only leave Crystal Palace for big money - Pardew

Crystal Palace boss Alan Pardew has revealed that talented winger Yannick Bolasie might leave Selhurst Park in the future but only for a massive transfer fee.

Bolasie has impressed with his performances for the Eagles this season but Pardew believes he still has some developing to do in south London.

"When it comes to whether we would ever let him go, you can never say never. Clubs who like him know he is a game changer," said Pardew.

"If he did go, then it would have to be for an awful lot of money, so we would have to wait and see what happens.

"You have to ask could we withstand the pressure that comes from a big club wanting one of our players.? But it would have to be a very big offer to tempt me and I don't see it happening yet, because nobody has asked about him. But we might have a problem in 12 months' time.

"Yannick knows he has to develop more if he is to move to a top club because he is nowhere near the finished article."
