Kouyaté: I am happy but I can do more

Cheikhou Kouyaté spoke to Premier League Productions with the midfielder previewing the Eagles' clash against his former employers, West Ham United.

Kouyaté arrived from the Hammers during the summer transfer window of 2018, with former Palace manager, Sam Allardyce, orginally bringing the Senegal international to the Premier League, which is something Kouyaté will always cherish: "It is very special to play against your former team. Especially West Ham because this team gave me what I wanted; my dream, from when I was young, I wanted to play in the Premier League and West Ham gave me this opportunity.
