The terms earned by Crystal Palace over the sale of Alexander Sorloth to RB Leipzig have been uncovered.

The Norway international, after a successful season on-loan with Trabzonspor, was sold by Palace to RBL this summer for €20m.

And it's emerged the fee was split 50:50 between Palace and Trabzonspor as the Turks had originally held a purchase option of just €6m as part of the loan deal.

RBL chief Markus Krosche said: "There have been a lot of emotional conversations.

"I don't think I'll often see transfers that will take place in such a constellation with three clubs."
