Jean-Philippe Mateta's first words after signing bumper Crystal Palace contract until 2026

Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta says he's delighted to have signed a permanent deal at the club and wants to help the Eagles finish the season on a strong note.

The 24-year-old was one year into an 18-month loan deal from German outfit Mainz when the Eagles decided to make his move permanent this month.

Mateta has signed a four-and-a-half-year deal at Selhurst Park, keeping him in SE25 until 2026 at the earliest. He has so far scored two goals in nine appearances for Patrick Vieira's side so far this season.
