Huddersfield Town boss David Wagner has welcomed new signing Jason Puncheon from Crystal Palace.

Puncheon has left Palace to join Huddersfield on loan for the rest of the season.

“It's important that our additions in January have the ability to arrive and make an immediate impact in our team, which I'm sure Jason can," said Wagner.

“He's played in this division for nearly a decade now and knows what it takes to be successful.

“As well as being a very good player, he is a great character.

"He has been the captain of Crystal Palace and is a real leader in the dressing room, which is something we wanted to add too."
