Manchester United star Wilfried Zaha remains on the fringes at Old Trafford.
A whole host of Premier League club are monitoring the youngster’s situation with a view to signing him on loan in January.
According to Goal.com, Newcastle have emerged as favourites for Zaha’s signature, with the 20-year-old believed to be keen on a switch to the Tyneside outfit over Swansea City, West Brom, Stoke City and his former club Crystal Palace.
Manchester United manager David Moyes is yet to sanction a loan move for the England starlet.

The Red Devils don’t want to send Zaha to a Championship club, nor a top four rival – conditions which make Newcastle an ideal place for the former Crystal Palace ace.
Zaha’s struggle for playing time at Old Trafford has led to salacious rumours that he has been having an affair with David Moyes’ daughter, Lauren.
However, the winger has brushed off the speculation on Twitter, describing the rumours as “childish”.
Zaha joined United from Palace last January in a deal worth up to £17 million.
