Crystal Palace Star Midfielder Waiting for Marseille Offer as Eagles Contract Talks Continue

Crystal Palace midfielder Yohan Cabaye is awaiting a contract offer from Europa League runners-up Marseille, according to reports.

The Frenchman is out of contract with the Eagles next month, and despite talks taking place with a view to extending his three-year stay at Selhurst Park, the former Newcastle United man is reportedly keen on a move back to his home country, following spells with Lille and Paris Saint-Germain, as reported by NewsShopper.

Cabaye made 32 appearances for Roy Hodgson's Palace side as they fought to avoid relegation and maintain their Premier League status, and the Eagles would be keen on retaining the services of the 32-year-old.
