MAMADOU SAKHO has revealed his amazing secret handshakes with the whole Crystal Palace team, including a salute with Patrick van Aanholt and dabbing with Bakary Sako.

The French defender has proved a fan-favourite at Selhurst Park after joining from Liverpool in August 2017 following a successful loan spell with the club.

The Eagles centre-back shared the incredible routine while celebrating his 28th birthday by opening an exchange with fellow ex-Red, Cristian Benteke.

Sakho then showcases his handshakes with Max Meyer and Jordan Ayew before displaying his signature salute with full-back van Aanholt.

The 28-year-old then crosses the Palace dining room to end the video with a succinct shake with Eagles starlet Aaron Wan-Bissaka.

Sakho has been a mainstay for Palace this season, with the club sitting in 13th place in the Premier League and three points above the drop zone.

Despite this, the French defender previously revealed his aim to quit the Eagles in search of Champions League football.

Speaking to RMC, he said: "I've always been ambitious, and I've worked to reach the highest levels of football since I was a trainee. Today my ambition remains the same.

"I want to play in the biggest competitions possible. If I said otherwise that would tell you that I lack ambition, and that I am happy with what I've got. Why shouldn't the Champions League be on my mind?"
