Mauricio Pochettino’s Tottenham Hotspur side have been linked with Crystal Palace’s Wilfried Zaha for some time.

According to the Independent Crystal Palace sources feel that Wilfried Zaha may have been priced out of a potential move to Tottenham Hotspur already.

Tottenham have been linked with Zaha over the long-term, but are yet to make a concerted move to sign the winger.

Zaha has made noises about wanting to make a switch in the summer, and Spurs are one of the most likely clubs to buy him.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side have always rated Zaha, but his wages could prove problematic for them.

Zaha is already on a £130,000-a-week contract (The Guardian) with the Eagles, which would make him one of Tottenham’s highest earners if he was to join.

The Independent suggest that Zaha would accept a move to Spurs on similar money to what he is on now.

But, even at that price, there are those at Palace who feel that Zaha’s wage could prove a compilation for any team who tries to buy him this summer.
