Crystal Palace offer Wilfried Zaha deal to make him highest-paid player EVER as Arsenal wait in wings for free transfer

CRYSTAL PALACE have offered Wilfried Zaha a lucrative new contract amid interest from Arsenal, according to reports.

Zaha’s £130,000 a week five-year deal expires this summer.

He is wanted by several high-profile clubs across Europe and Palace have rejected offers for him in the past, with Arsenal previously making a move in the summer of 2019.

Now the Eagles have made one more bid to keep Zaha by offering him £200,000 a week, according to The Guardian.

That would make him by far Palace’s highest-paid player in their history, and tie him down for four more years.

Zaha, 30, is believed to be weighing up the offer but wants assurances over the club’s European ambitions.

The winger could have multiple options to consider with interest from Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain, Roma, Marseille and the Gunners.

Saudi Arabian side Al-Ittihad are also said to have offered a deal worth £9million-a-year, which Zaha is set to reject.

Zaha is expected to delay any decision on his future until the end of the season, with Arsenal readying an offer.

Bundesliga duo Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund are also keen on snapping up the Ivorian international on a free transfer.

Ligue Un side Monaco are also in the race but may reportedly be priced out.

Zaha reportedly wants to stay in Europe and play Champions League level football next season.
