Crystal Palace in Danger of Losing Zaha for Free as Ivory Coast Star Refuses to Commit to New Contract

• Wilfried Zaha looks set to leave Crystal Palace when his current contract expires in January
• Arsenal is keen to bring the talented Ivory Coast winger into the fold at Emirates Stadium
• Zaha is reportedly set to reject advances from Palace to sign a new deal, with other clubs also interested in him

Crystal Palace are growing increasingly worried that their star man Wilfried Zaha could walk away for free at the end of the season.

Zaha’s contract with the Eagles is running out fast, and the 29-year old is yet to agree a new deal.

If he fails to pen a new deal at Selhurst Park, Zaha could become a free agent as early as January 1 when the winter transfer window opens.

According to Daily Mail, Zaha played down a verbal advance from Crystal Palace bosses to have him sign a new mammoth deal.

If he is yet to sign a deal by January 1, Palace risk seeing him sign a pre-agreement with a different club.

The Ivory Coast international is currently on a £130,000 a week contract with Palace, but the club is reportedly keen on handing him the most lucrative contract in its history.

As of Wednesday, November 2, talks were still ongoing, although it is yet to be seen whether the winger will budge on his stance.

Who is interested in Zaha?

Despite talks in recent seasons that Zaha was not cut out for big Premier League sides, a number of English giants have been linked with a move.

Arsenal, Tottenham and Zaha’s former club Manchester United have all been rumoured to be interested in his services in the recent past.

Jurgen Klopp is eyeing more players on the defence amid Liverpool’s struggles in the league this season.

Part of the reason Klopp’s side has struggled so much this season is because of the congested fixture list, which has led to constant injuries within the team.
