Crystal Palace have confirmed the signing of Lyon defender Joachim Andersen on a five-year contract.
The Eagles have landed the impressive Denmark international, 25, and reports claim they have agreed a package worth around £20million with the French club.
The centre-back was on loan at Fulham last season. Palace have already signed Marc Guehi from Chelsea but have lost Gary Cahill, Scott Dann and Mamadou Sakho from last year's squad.
