​Townsend looking for new club after Crystal Palace concession

Crystal Palace winger Andros Townsend is likely to leave the club this summer.

The English star is out of contract after his deal expired at the end of last term.

According to the Evening Standard, Townsend had discussions with Palace about a new deal.

However, he is now set to depart, as the player himself revealed during a Q&A on the ITV Sport Twitter account.

Townsend was asked what he wanted from his next team.

"A lot of things really," he replied.

"At this stage of my career it has to be the right move. There has to be a clear path to game time, I have to suit the style of play and the manager has to want me.

"My family have to be happy in their new surroundings so yeah a lot of thinking goes into this move which is why I am still without a club at the beginning of July.

"Hopefully I can sort it out soon."
