2016-17 Barclays Premier League - Belgium striker Christian Benteke Completes Move to Crystal Palace from Liverpool Saturday Aug 20,2016



Belgium striker Christian Benteke has signed for Crystal Palace from Liverpool, the Premier League rivals announced on Saturday Aug 20,2016

The clubs did not disclose the transfer fee for the four-year contract but British media have said it was 27 million pounds ($35.30 million) plus extras that could see the deal rise to more than 30 million.

Former Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers signed the player from Aston Villa at the start of the 2015-16 season but the Belgian never won a regular starting place under him or his successor, German Juergen Klopp.

"I'm very happy to commit my future to Crystal Palace and I'm looking forward to meeting the manager, the players and the staff," Benteke, 25, said in a statement

Christian Benteke becomes Crystal Palace's 4th signing of the transfer window after Andros Townsend, James Tomkins and Steve Mandanda.
