Sam Johnstone: Crystal Palace sign England and ex-West Brom goalkeeper on free transfer

England goalkeeper Sam Johnstone has joined Crystal Palace on a four-year deal.

The 29-year-old moves to the Eagles on a free transfer after his contract with Championship club West Bromwich Albion expired at the end of June.

Johnstone, who has played for England three times, will provide competition to 35-year-old Vicente Guaita.

"I'm really excited to be here at Crystal Palace, I can't wait to get started," said Johnstone.

"It's a great club with fantastic facilities and brilliant supporters."

Johnstone made his international debut in the 1-0 friendly win over Romania in June 2021 and also played in two World Cup qualifiers against Andorra that year.
