Palace complete double swoop

Crystal Palace manager Ian Holloway has confirmed deals for Huddersfield Town full-back Jack Hunt and Reading winger Jimmy Kebe.

A deal for Hunt was reported to be close to completion this morning, while Kebe is believed to have been on the radar earlier this week.

Holloway stated on Wednesday that it was "obvious" that the Eagles needed fresh blood, and he confirmed the captures after today's 3-1 win over Sunderland.

"Hopefully by Monday we might have three or maybe even four [new signings]," the 50-year-old told Sky Sports News.

Kebe has signed a three-year contract at Selhurst Park.
