Wilfried Zaha has enjoyed an outstanding campaign for Crystal Palace.

His goals, assists, and overall contribution has helped Sam Allardyce’s side avoid the relegation drop this season.

The big question is – can Palace keep hold of him in the summer?

According to widespread reports, Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly interested (The Mirror) in signing the former Manchester United winger.

Spurs can not only tempt him in a lucrative wage package, but with guaranteed regular football and Champions League as well.

In fact, if Tottenham refuse to make a move, some other big clubs definitely will. Palace will find it hard to keep hold of their star player.

Crystal Palace should move for Scott Sinclair

If Zaha leaves the club, Allardyce should spend the money in signing Sinclair from Celtic.

There is every reason for him not to join Palace. Why would he leave a champion team to join a mid-table Premier League side? Then there is no Champions League football as well.

However, what Palace can offer is a lucrative salary and a platform to play regular football in a competitive league which could help him get into the England squad.

Sinclair plays on the left side of the midfield, and offers pace and width. Most importantly he scores goals and loads of it – he scored 23 goals in 39 games for Celtic this season.

He would add a different quality to the side, and Allardyce must try to lure him to the Premier League.
