Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool reportedly want the Selhurst Park starlet.

Roy Hodgson, Manager of Crystal Palace speaks to the media during a Press Conference at the Crystal Palace Training Ground on September 15, 2017 in Beckenham, England.

Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal and Chelsea are all circling around rising star Zion Atta but the striker has no interest in walking away from Crystal Palace any time soon, according to TEAMtalk.

It has been a tough year for Palace with two of their academy graduates attracting plenty of interest from outside Selhurst Park. Fortunately, Roy Hodgson’s side managed to fend off interest in talisman Wilf Zaha after losing right-back Aaron Wan Bissaka to Manchester United over the summer.

Atta is now hoping to follow in Zaha and Wan-Bissaka’s footsteps, even if he is a long way away from forcing his way into The Eagles’ first-team plans.

The rangy striker joined Palace from London rivals Millwall in June of last year and his impressive performances behind the scenes have apparently caught the eye of Tottenham and Arsenal, who were both interested back in 2018 too.

TEAMtalk adds that Premier League giants Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea have all been watching the teenager closely.

But although Atta has not yet been tied down to a professional contract, Palace expect to keep hold of their latest rising star with the forward and his family more than happy with how life is progressing at Selhurst Park.
