I see the rumours have already started according to the Beeb's gossip column:

"Everton, Atletico Madrid and Bayern Munich are expected to bid for Crystal Palace and Ivory Coast winger Wilfried Zaha this summer, with Newcastle also keen on the 27-year-old. (Mail)"

Fortunately the source is only the Mail and we know what their track record is like!

I think this is the window he goes. Can't see us getting anywhere near 50 million now. Will be around the 25million mark if even. Question is who will want him who can afford him? If wilf doesn't go this window he never will.

THE 17th OF MAY. MY 17th BIRTHDAY. MICHEAL HUGHES SCORES THE WINNING PENALTY, WHAT WAS HIS NUMBER? 17!!!!!

So which of them is in pole position do you think Willo? Also much will depend on where Wilf is on their list of priority signings.

Zaha appointed a new agent Pini Zahavi some months ago supposedly because his former agent wasn’t able to deliver a move.
Zahavi has extensive contacts in the game and has a reputation for being able to move on his players.
Zaha has a number of years remaining on his contract but it must be doubtful Palace could get the same amount of money for him as they could have last summer.
Best case scenario may be if we were able to exchange him for player(s) that we want from another club.
There would apparently be a sell on fee due to Man U but it’s unclear on how this would operate if a player exchange was involved.
Perhaps a nominal value would be applied to the deal so Man U could get their cut.
In hindsight it may have been better to sell Zaha last summer when there was interest in him and market conditions were more favourable.
However, nobody could have foreseen how poor his form would be this season or the impact of the virus on football economics.

He obviously employed a new agent to get a move, but a a move to a Champions League side seems unlikely - he seems to have lost a yard of pace, his finishing is erratic, he can't cross, and is far too petulant for his own good. He seems to have lost his mojo at the Palace, so it's time for all concerned that he goes. If he moves to another Premiership club he'll only get the same wind-up treatment from defenders, perhaps a new coach can guide him to new heights.

If he goes, in his absence we may well have opportunity to revisit that evaluation. Especially if Roy is slow to bring in fresh talent.

Have to agree with you, lately hes been atrocious, uninterested, always 1 petulant foul away from a red card and really needed dropping!

I just can't see any of the top clubs in England making a move for him so then it is down to the usual suspects of Everton, Newcastle, West Ham, and I can't imagine him playing for any of them.

It will be interesting to see what happens.

If the investors want out I wonder if that could complicate the sale? I mean, if Parish knows they won't allow the club to spend big then he might decide it's better we kept him (albeit I think Zaha would probably not react to this well)

The season he's had and the impact of Covid means that his value will have massively dropped.

I can't really see many clubs coming in for him to be honest unless it is someone like Everton, even then he doesn't strike me as an Ancelotti player.

With a new baby on the way, a lack of interest and less money, I can't see him going anywhere.

Bayern have just signed Sane so can't see interest in Zaha. These rumours just seem like a lack of stories and an active agent.
