Chelsea are ready to recall an on-loan striker due to their transfer ban, while a Crystal Palace star has asked to join Arsenal, according to Saturday’s papers.
ZAHA PUSHING FOR GUNNERS MOVE
Crystal Palace star Wilfried Zaha has told his club to allow him to leave and join Arsenal this summer, a report claims.
There have been reports over the last week that Unai Emery ‘will ask Arsenal to break the bank’ for Zaha despite widespread reports that the Spaniard’s budget could be as low as £45million.
Ornstein reckons that Palace would be ‘reluctant to entertain offers’ for Zaha ‘in light of Wan-Bissaka’s departure’.
It was also claimed that ‘the most realistic way of generating the required finance would be by cashing in on’ Aubameyang, who was the Gunners’ top scorer last season.
However, a report from the Daily Mirror has handed the north London side a boost as they claim Zaha has told Palace he wants a move to the Emirates Stadium this summer.
The paper states that the Ivory Coast international has ‘pleaded’ with the Eagles to ‘reach an agreement for a transfer to his childhood team’.
Zaha is however valued at £80million, a figure which at the moment provides a sizeable ‘stumbling block’ in potential negotiations.
