Crystal Palace have completed the £750,000 signing of Paul Ifill from Sheffield United.

The former Millwall winger returns to the capital after being put on the transfer list by The Blades.

He had made just three league appearances for the club this season following promotion to the Premiership.

Neil Warnock has been planning a clear-out of his Bramall Lane squad and Ifill follows Ade Akinbiyi and David Unsworth in leaving the club.

Ifill has now signed a two-and-a-half year contract at Selhurst Park, and Warnock offered his gratitude to the player.

"We'd like to wish Paul all the best and thank him for his contribution in helping the club to where we are now," Warnock told the club's official website.

After passing a medical, Ifill is in contention to make his Palace debut against Coventry City in Saturday's Championship game.
