Crystal Palace manager Patrick Vieira is full of praise for Ghanaian teen Jesurn Rak-Sakyi after his superb display in the pre-season friendly draw against Charlton Athletic.

The 18-year-old winger opened the scoring as the Eagles were held by Charlton Athletic to a 2-2 draw at the Selhurst Park.

Rak-Sakyi signed his first professional contract with the club in July, and has showed glimpses of quality during pre-season, giving Vieira an option on the flanks ahead of the upcoming campaign.
