Crystal Palace chief Parish slams Spurs over Zaha offer

Crystal Palace chief Steve Parish has slammed Tottenham over their attempts to sign Wilfried Zaha.

Zaha has told Palace boss Alan Pardew he wants to leave Selhurst Park and Spurs chief Mauricio Pochettino is ready to come back with a second bid.

Parish said: “There is no chance Zaha will be sold in this window — 100 per cent guaranteed. We had a bid from Spurs, it was a £12million bid and it was a ridiculous bid — they cannot be serious.

“The manager and the player might have had a conversation but I'm chairman of the club.

“I decide who leaves and he's not leaving.

“He'll have to get his head around that."
