Crystal Palace ace Zaha warming towards Everton move

Crystal Palace ace Wilfried Zaha is warming towards a move to Everton.

The Mirror says Zaha is said to be open to the idea of a move to Everton as a dream transfer to Arsenal appears to be becoming less and less likely.

The 26-year-old winger announced his intentions to depart Selhurst Park earlier this month , with the Gunners his preferred destination due to the attraction of European football and the fact they were the team he supported as a child.

But Arsenal are known to have a restricted transfer budget this summer, and a £40m bid was rejected straight away by the Eagles, who are holding out for a fee of around double that amount.

This has led Everton to allegedly express an interest in the player , with the Toffees keen to land a marquee signing having already completed moves for Andre Gomes, Fabian Delph and Jonas Lossl this summer.
