Crystal Palace manager Ian Holloway has admitted that he was "so pleased" for Wilfried Zaha following the club's promotion to the Premier League.
The 20-year-old attacker signed for Manchester United in January, the club agreeing to allow him to return to Palace on a loan basis until the end of the campaign.
Having come through the ranks at Selhurst Park, Holloway conceded that he was pleased Zaha was able to be a part of their 1-0 success over Watford at Wembley earlier today.
"How fitting for Wilfried Zaha as well today. I am so pleased for him, he is a wonderful kid. I am proud we didn't stand in his way, and hopefully we can move on with our academy. I want them to emulate Wilfried," he told BBC Sport.
"You cannot stand in the way of players when big clubs come in for them. The club has it right, all the best to him."
Zaha has reportedly cost United around £15m.
