Crystal Palace manager Dougie Freedman is weighing up a move for former West Ham goalkeeper Peter Kurucz after he impressed on trial.

The Hungarian, who left the Hammers at the end of last season, saved a penalty in the Eagles' friendly against Dulwich Hamlet on Tuesday night as the Championship side won 3-0.

Freedman is considering adding a third shot-stopper alongside Lewis Price and Julian Speroni to bolster his options between the sticks.

"We're having a little look at him," said the manager. "We feel in pre-season it's an ideal time.

"He showed that he has good quality and saved that penalty.

"We just need to assess whether we're going to take a third goalkeeper or not."
