Everton are reportedly keen to sign the Crystal Palace winger.

Wilfried Zaha of Crystal Palace is awarded with the EA SPORTS Player of the Month for April on May 8, 2018 in Beckenham, England.

According to a report from Sky Sports, Everton have lodged a £55 million bid for Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha.

The Toffees seem to have a really strong squad of players at Goodison Park heading into the new season, but signing the Ivorian really would take them to another level entirely.

The 26-year-old was in fine form for Palace last season, racking up 10 goals and 10 assists in 34 Premier League outings, and what a signing he would be for Everton.

Marco Silva already has the likes of Richarlison, Bernard and Theo Walcott, but Zaha would make their front-line even more dangerous.

Sky Sports claims that Everton have offered Palace £55 million for the Ivory Coast international.

Wilfried Zaha of Palace is challenged by Oxford defender Rob Dickieat Kassam Stadium on July 21, 2018 in Oxford, England.

It was suggested that the Merseyside outfit would offer the Eagles one or two players as part of the potential deal to sign Zaha, but Sky Sports claims that that is now not the case.

Palace were reportedly demanding £80 million for the 26-year-old just last week, according to the Daily Mail, so it remains to be seen whether they will even entertain Everton’s opening offer.
