Tottenham and Arsenal reportedly want to target Wilfried Zaha “he wants to win prizes,” Andros Townsend said.
Zaha returned to Crystal Palace in 2015 with a permanent contract of United manchester. He has always been one of their best players since he returned.
The attacker enjoyed his best season figures in 2020/21, when he scored 11 Premier League goals out of 30 appearances.
There are not four players in the top 10 forwards of the season.
Zaha came close to joining Everton in 2019. A £ 70 million offer plus Cenk Tosun and James McCarthy were on the table. But the Toffees ultimately chose to bring in Alex Iwobi from Arsenal.
The Ivory Coast international is attracting the interest of several of Palace’s Premier League rivals. According to reports from OBJECTIVE Y 90minTottenham, Arsenal and Everton are eager to bring it. Palace values its valuable asset at around £ 40 million.
Zaha recently revealed to Face that his “dream” is to win silverware:
“I feel like I can still have a chance in the best teams because my dream is to win things.
“I’m good enough to go out there and compete with the best.
“If the opportunity presented itself, I would not turn it down because I feel like I deserve it. This way I can show my children: ‘This is what Daddy will earn.’
Townsend ha dicho talkSPORT that he would like to see Zaha “shine” on the bigger stage:
“While I would love to see him play at the Palace for as long as possible as a Palace player, as a friend of Wilf, I would love to see him and eventually have the opportunity to shine on the bigger stage.
«He is an elite player. He wants to play on the biggest stage possible. He wants to play in the Champions League, he wants to win trophies, hunger is not a problem for Wilf.
Last month, former palace chief Roy Hodgson insisted that Zaha wants to stay at Selhurst Park:
“It has been very well. He has missed more games due to injury than in previous years, which is a blow for us, but we hope to keep him in shape for the next nine days.
“You seem pretty clear at this point what you want to do and where you want to be. We hope to build on that in the next nine games.
“We’ll see what happens at the end of the season.”
