Zaha tells Crystal Palace pals he wants Chelsea move

Crystal Palace ace Wilfried Zaha is desperate to join Chelsea.

The Mirror says Zaha has told fellow Crystal Palace colleagues he is determined to quit the club and wants a big-money switch to Chelsea.

Zaha has rejected a new contract in a bid to force a move. He has already snubbed interest from Everton as he is reluctant to move north again, after a failed stint with Manchester United.

Everton turned to Watford wideman Richarlison instead, and now Zaha is up for a move across London to Stamford Bridge.

He could even consider lodging an official transfer request after Palace told him they would only consider an irresistibly huge offer.

Palace have since offered Zaha a new deal worth £125,000-a-week — although he only signed one for £100,000-a-week 15 months ago.
