Yannick Bolasie gushes over "top class" Crystal Palace teammate Yohan Cabaye

By , Reporter
Yannick Bolasie pays tribute to new Crystal Palace teammate Yohan Cabaye for the speed in which he has settled at Selhurst Park.

Yannick Bolasie has admitted that he has been left awestruck by new Crystal Palace teammate Yohan Cabaye.

The Frenchman joined Palace in a club-record £12.8m deal from Paris Saint-Germain before marking his debut with a goal in Saturday's 3-1 win at Norwich City.

"He is top class, you could see if from the first day, a real 'baller' as we like to say - his first touch is like nothing I have come across before," Bolasie told Goal.com.

"He is already looking towards his next move before he gets the ball as he knows he is taking down any ball that comes to him.

"And you can already see that rubbing off on everyone, but he has fitted in so well - you would not know he has just come in from Paris Saint-Germain."

Eagles boss Alan Pardew previously signed the 29-year-old for Newcastle United, where he left for PSG in 2014.
