Crystal Palace boss Hodgson dismisses Zaha exit talk

Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson has dismissed any suggestions of Wilfried Zaha leaving in January.

AC Milan and PSG are both said to be keen on the winger, but Palace have no thoughts on letting him go this month.

“There has been so much speculation regarding Wilf over the years that I tend to let those concerns disappear, as they often do," Hodgson said.

“Wilf's good and it doesn't surprise me that there's clubs out there who would like to sign him, but a lot of things have to be put in place before a player leaves a club.

“I'm just happy at the moment that Wilf is playing as he is, displaying his discipline and concentration and his passion for football and the club, and unless I'm given a reason to think otherwise, I expect that to keep going."
