Crystal Palace are closing on a deal for free agent Remi Matthews.

Matthews, who came through the ranks at Carrow Road but never made a senior appearance, is a free agent after leaving Sunderland and tipped to provide back up for the Eagles under new boss Patrick Vieira.

The 27-year-old made only six appearances last season for the Black Cats after joining from Bolton.

Transfer guru Alan Nixon, of The Sun, posted online on Sunday afternoon Matthews is close to sealing a Selhurst Park deal.
