Crystal Palace confirmed the signing of Odsonne Edouard from Celtic late on deadline day.
And, as to be expected, a number of Eagles supporters flocked to the announcement on social media.
Palace were after two forwards before the end of the month but had to settle for one in Edouard, who they were first linked with in 2019.
The 23-year-old has penned a four-year deal at Selhurst Park, with a move to London costing the Eagles £14m.
Edouard contributed to 125 goals in 179 appearances during his time with Celtic and will now look to add some much-needed firepower to Patrick Vieira’s squad who have scored twice in their opening three Premier League fixtures.
Palace fans react
Palace shared the transfer news regarding Edouard becoming their eighth and final signing of the window on their official Twitter page.
This is what some had to say in reply, with one describing a deal as ‘class’.
