Crystal Palace defender Pape Souare was airlifted to hospital after a car crash on the M4 motorway in London, but his injuries are not life threatening.


26-year-old Souare injured his thigh and jaw bone in Sunday's crash and will stay in hospital while he receives treatment.

He was not part of the side that beat Middlesbrough 2-1 on Saturday. "The club are liaising closely with the hospital on his progress. Our thoughts are with Pape and his family at this time." Palace said in a statement.
