DONE DEAL: Crystal Palace sign ex-Schalke midfielder Meyer

Max Meyer has signed for Crystal Palace.

The 22-year-old was a free agent after his contract with Schalke expired at the end of last season.

Meyer becomes the Eagles third signing of the summer and will wear the number 7 shirt.

"I feel really good and I'm happy to be here," said Meyer. “I can't wait to start training with the team and I hope I'll have a good season.

"I'm proud to be here and I hope I can make the next step in my career. I want to give my best and I think we can have a good season - maybe better than the last.

"I played at Selhurst Park last season for Schalke and the atmosphere was perfect, and I can't wait to experience the atmosphere for a Premier League game."
