Crystal Palace boss Neil Warnock unaware if Damien Delaney has agreed new deal

Crystal Palace manager Neil Warnock has admitted that he is in the dark about Damien Delaney's contract situation.

The 33-year-old recently claimed on social media that he wants to remain at Selhurst Park, and while fresh terms have not been confirmed, Warnock is hopeful that a deal will be struck.

"One of the press guys told me this morning that on Delaney's Instagram he says he's agreed so somebody at the club will tell me eventually," Warnock told reporters.

"Unfortunately Damien can't tweet me but no doubt he'll let me know, it's good news if it's true. He's an important player for the club on and off the field. He's one of our leaders and it's good to tie him down, it's a reward for him as well."

The centre-back has been a Palace player since 2012.
