Everton have made a £55 million bid for Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha.

Interest in the Ivory Coast international is hotting up, as teams look to finalize their squads ahead of the coming Premier League season.

Arsenal were the club with the most interest in Zaha, but they have turned their attention to Nicholas Pepe.

Sky Sportssays Everton's bid is unlikely to convince Palace to sell.

But it could be the starting point for negotiations between the two clubs.

Zaha had previously expressed a desire to leave for a club that participated in the Champions League, but Everton would not fit that criteria.
