Everton are said to be prepared to spend big on Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha.
According to the London Evening Standard, Everton are stepping up their chase of Wilfried Zaha.
Everton are on the hunt for a winger, and Zaha’s future at Crystal Palace is in serious doubt.
Arsenal are currently leading the race for Zaha, but Everton now want to sign the winger.
Zaha would cost around £80 million to buy, but Everton are said to have identified him as their first choice attacking target.
If Everton were to sign Zaha it would be a huge statement of intent, but there has to be question marks over whether they could afford the deal.
Zaha would command a huge fee and it’s likely he would want a big pay rise if he was to move to Goodison Park.
That being said, if Everton could pull off the swoop it would surely be their most exciting deal for a long time.
Zaha would have the potential to destroy defences in an Everton shirt, as he is so dangerous.
With Zaha and Richarlison running down either flank, Everton would have some of the best options on the wing in the entirety of the Premier League.
And the current rumours should cause some excitement around Goodison Park, even though there has to be some doubts over whether the transfer is actually possible.
