Crystal Palace have announced that defender Martin Kelly is "safe and well" after being caught up in the attacks on Paris on Friday night.
Earlier in the evening, Kelly used Instagram to post a picture of one of the restaurants targeted by gunmen in the French capital, revealing that he was in the area shortly before eight gunmen launched a coordinated attack on the city.
There had been fears for the 25-year-old's safety, but in the early hours of Saturday morning, Palace and the club's programme editor revealed that the former Liverpool full-back had been in contact with them.
We have been in contact with @MartinKelly1990 tonight and can confirm he is safe and well.
