Former Arsenal midfielder Mathieu Flamini is currently undergoing a medical at Crystal Palace.

Eagles manager Alan Pardew confirmed on Tuesday he is interested in signing Flamini, who has been a free agent since leaving the Emirates in the summer.

He said last night: "I like the fact whenever he played, he played in the big, big games at Arsenal when they needed someone to kind of lead the team over the line and get big results.

"I have always admired what he's done, so I am looking at him."
