Wilfried Zaha Transfer News
The Ivorian international has been linked with a return to the Premier League after attracting interest from Wolves, Fulham, West Ham and Everton.
Zaha has played in England previously, for both Manchester United and Crystal Palace, making over 300 appearances in England’s top-flight.
