Crystal Palace release 22 players this week

Crystal Palace have released 22 players this week.

The Sun reports Gary Cahill, Nathaniel Clyne and Andros Townsend are among those set to leave Selhurst Park as the Premier League side look to rebuild under a new manager.

Palace have not yet offered new deals to Wayne Hennessey, Mamadou Sakho and Patrick van Aanholt.

Long-term players Joel Ward, Connor Wickham and Scott Dann have also been placed on the dreaded 'released' list.

All 22 players still have a chance of being retained by Palace yet as the list is not definitive and the club have not formally confirmed their departures.

The South London side have given more free transfers than any other Premier League team - a sign they are looking to rebuild following the departure of manager Roy Hodgson.
