Max Meyer

Crystal Palace midfielder MAX MEYER has left the club by mutual consent.

The German joined on a free transfer amid much fanfare in August 2018 after his contract expired with Schalke.

MEYER had played a key role in Schalke's runners-up spot in the Bundesliga and came with Champions League experience.

His excellent dribbling ability, which he owes to playing futsal as a kid, earned him the 'German Messi' nickname.

However, Palace boss Roy Hodgson was not able to fit the 25-year-old international into his team.

After 56 Eagles appearances and two goals, MEYER and Palace have decided to terminate his three-year contract.
