Crystal Palace have confirmed the signing of defender Chris Richards from Bayern Munich on a five-year deal.
The 22-year-old American centre-back joined Bayern from FC Dallas in 2018 and had been on loan at Hoffenheim since February 2021.
Richards told the Palace website: 'I grew up watching the Premier League and grew up of course watching (Wilfried) Zaha, so it'll be cool to spend some time on the field with them (the players) and be a part of this historic club.
'I'm really excited for it.
