Former Crystal Palace winger Brandon Pierrick has joined AFC Croydon Athletic.
Wilfried Zaha – who left the Eagles this summer to join Galatasaray – rapper Stormzy and Danny Young purchased the football club in late June.

The now 21-year-old has had a loan spell at Kilmarnock and played for Danish Superliga club Vejle and National League South side Dover Athletic since leaving Palace.
