Alan Pardew: 'Yannick Bolasie is worth at least £40m'

Crystal Palace boss Alan Pardew warns that anything below the £40m mark will not see Yannick Bolasie leave Selhurst Park.

Crystal Palace manager Alan Pardew has revealed that he would happily sell in-form Yannick Bolasie this summer - providing one of his suitors coughs up at least £40m.

The 25-year-old winger has thrust himself into the spotlight in recent weeks after netting a hat-trick in the 4-1 win away to Sunderland earlier this month.

Liverpool have since been linked with a summer swoop, and Pardew, who is irked at seeing his charges "undervalued", has revealed what it will take to prise him away from Selhurst Park.

"I'll sell Yannick, if someone wants to give me £40m to £60m, somewhere in there, that would be good," he told reporters at a press conference. "I'll take it and we'll build the team around that money. Every player has a price, of course.

"All these players here are undervalued, in my opinion. This is a top-10 team at the moment, top 12, yet if you put the valuation of our squad against any of the other teams above us, and some below, it's not right.

"So I'm going to address that. Anyone who rings me up will get a proper price."

Bolasie, who fetched just £400,000 from Bristol City in 2012, is contracted to the Eagles until 2017.
