Latest Liverpool transfer news: Palace prefer selling Zaha to clubs such as Liverpool and not Arsenal
Sky Sports reporter Kaveh Solhekol claims Crystal Palace are open to
The Express claims that Arsenal saw a £40million bid rejected for Zaha in January, and Palace want at least double of that amount for the Ivorian.
Zaha is one of the best attackers in the Premier League and prefers a move to Arsenal, however, Palace
However, Solhekol believes Palace will only sell if they get the right price, and won’t stand in the way if a top club approaches them.
The Sky reporter was speaking on the Transfer Window podcast and named Liverpool as one club that Palace would not have objections selling to (h/t Express):
“They are saying ‘look, he’s our player, we would understand if he wanted to leave to go and play for a Champions League club, but Arsenal are not a Champions League club’.
“They wouldn’t stand in his way if Barcelona or Real Madrid or PSG or Manchester City or Liverpool were trying to sign him.
“But when it comes to Arsenal, they don’t feel that the attraction there is as much as it would be at a club that was in the Champions League.”
Palace have already sold one star in the summer
The Eagles have been busy this summer and sold Aaron Wan-Bissaka to Manchester United for £50m (h/t Express).
Zaha would be a great addition to the team but he would not be able to replace any of our front three at the moment.
The Ivorian would provide cover to our attackers but he would want to start games regularly after impressing at Selhurst Park.
