Marseille coach Rudi Garcia admits interest in Crystal Palace keeper Mandanda

Olympique Marseille coach Rudi Garcia admits he's interested in Crystal Palace goalkeeper Steve Mandanda.

The France international is expected to leave Palace this summer, though manager Sam Allardyce's resignation could force a rethink.

Garcia, meanwhile, admits OM are open to re-signing Mandanda.

"We want a very good goalkeeper. We want to have two. We have Yohann Pelé, so we will take a very high level goalkeeper," he said.

"You're talking about Steve Mandanda, a very high-level keeper. I can not tell you more. If he comes, that's fine. If it is not him, it will be another of the same level and this is not easy."
