Bakary Sako to depart Crystal Palace

Bakary Sako will leave Crystal Palace when his contract expires at the end of this month.

The 31-year-old forward first signed for Palace in 2015, joining from Wolverhampton Wanderers. Fifty games and eight goals later - including a goal and assist within a month of signing during Palace's 2-1 victory over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge - the Malian international joined West Bromwich Albion in the summer of 2018. But Sako soon returned to south London just four months later in the most recent January window.

In total, Sako featured 54 times and scored eight goals for Palace across four campaigns.
