French giants reportedly make contact over summer deal for Crystal Palace’s Wilfried Zaha

Crystal Palace attacker Wilf Zaha is being linked with a summer free transfer move to French giants PSG.

The Ivory Coast international is out of contract at the start of next month.

And the French media – Le Parisien – say that the French champions have made contact about a switch.

Atletico Madrid have also been mentioned as admirers of Zaha, who has been offered lucrative new terms by Palace.

The 30-year-old has scored 90 goals in 458 matches for the Eagles.

Zaha came through the youth ranks in SE25 before a big-money move to Manchester United in January 2013 – crucially staying on loan with Palace to help them win promotion to the Premier League via the Championship play-offs.

He failed to earn game time at Old Trafford and had an unproductive loan at Cardiff City before returning to the Eagles, initially on a temporary basis, in August 2014. Zaha made the return permanent in the winter transfer window.

Palace chairman Steve Parish has steadfastly maintained that he wants to keep Zaha. If he does commit then it makes it likely he will finish his top-level career with the South Londoners.
