Any news on Wales numero uno?

I'm certain Palace are in for another Keeper as well as having Mandana- but hadn't Wayne Hennesey left the club? If so any news on where he's been linked too?
Can't see him being a Prem starter unless it's for Huddersfield or Brighton but certainly would fly in as a number one in championship

Well here is the latest from CRYSTAL PALACE - On their keepers -

Steve Mandanda has left Crystal Palace to rejoin his former side Marseille, the south London club confirmed on Tuesday.
Mandanda joined Palace from Marseille on a free transfer in July 2016 but made just ten appearances for the Eagles during a season cut short by a knee injury.
And the 32-year-old, who has been capped 24 times by France, has now rejoined the Ligue 1 side on a three-year deal for an undisclosed fee.

He was unveiled as a Marseille player as he held up the No 30 shirt alongside the club's sporting director Andoni Zubizarreta and president Jacques-Henri Eyraud.
Mandanda had been at Marseille for nine seasons making 441 appearances before moving to the Premier League.
Palace now have just Wayne Hennessey and Julian Speroni as their senior goalkeeping options ahead of the new campaign.
