Crystal Palace are opening contract talks with winger Andros Townsend.

The Englishman was subject to interest from West Bromwich Albion in the transfer window.

However, a move did not materialize.

And according to Football Insider, Townsend and Palace will now sit down regarding a new deal.

The 29-year-old is happy at the club and the south Londoners want to ensure he is tied down for at least a few years.

Townsend's current deal expires in the summer.
