I would like to see him go to German I really think they could help him out. But I don't see him leaving England he appears to weak to go abroad he needs all his support around him. For Palace and Him going abroad is the best move he could make for money and his ambition. Big problem is based on the lack of interest last season and he has been very poor this season I don't see many people wanting to even pay 50m for him so will Palace just give up and let him go cheap if they have to?

I just can't see any of the top clubs in England making a move for him so then it is down to the usual suspects of Everton, Newcastle, West Ham, and I can't imagine him playing for any of them. It will be interesting to see what happens.

I agree with think he will get more space to play his game in the BL and if he goes to Munich then that may help his other ambition to play in CL. The price as you rightly say is not going to anywhere near what was being offered last year, I can see price being more than 30-40 range at best due to his poor form this year!

Originally posted by doombear It would be encouraging if the money received was used for that purpose but I imagine our American investors will have a use for their share stateside.

I mean, if Parish knows they won't allow the club to spend big then he might decide it's better we kept him (albeit I think Zaha would probably not react to this well)

Originally posted by PatrickA Zaha appointed a new agent Pini Zahavi some months ago supposedly because his former agent wasn’t able to deliver a move. Zahavi has extensive contacts in the game and has a reputation for being able to move on his players. Zaha has a number of years remaining on his contract but it must be doubtful Palace could get the same amount of money for him as they could have last summer. Best case scenario may be if we were able to exchange him for player(s) that we want from another club. There would apparently be a sell on fee due to Man U but it’s unclear on how this would operate if a player exchange was involved. Perhaps a nominal value would be applied to the deal so Man U could get their cut. In hindsight it may have been better to sell Zaha last summer when there was interest in him and market conditions were more favourable. However, nobody could have foreseen how poor his form would be this season or the impact of the virus on football economics. Some of us predicted he’d be s* but others said £100 mil is the price.

The season he's had and the impact of Covid means that his value will have massively dropped. I can't really see many clubs coming in for him to be honest unless it is someone like Everton, even then he doesn't strike me as an Ancelotti player. With a new baby on the way, a lack of interest and less money, I can't see him going anywhere. Bayern have just signed Sane so can't see interest in Zaha. These rumours just seem like a lack of stories and an active agent.

A big factor in any move for Wilf if it's not all about money will obviously be Trophys.But the almost certain payback if he chooses to go to a top side will mean he will become a squad player ie limited game time.Will he like that I wonder ?

I have very mixed feelings. I think he will go this time and It is probably for the best, all round. However, I reckon we will struggle to replace him. Wilf has been the jewel in our Premiership crown and our longest term in the top flight will always be associated with him. With the “Wilf Years” coming to an end I hope there is Premiership life after Zaha, but I fear the worst.

Bayern are alright for wingers aren't they? Can't really see him getting any game time there. Newcastle are the one club that might pay stupid money. I'd take Iwobi as part of a swap if Everton were offering, maybe Bolasie on a loan to beef out our options. We'd probably ask for Delph and Tosun. 26th January 2010 - Enter Administration 2nd May 2010 - D-Day 1 - Survival at Hillsborough 1st June 2010 - D-Day 2 - Survival at Lloyds 7th June 2010 - CPFC2010 exchange contracts.

Originally posted by Irisheagle87 I think this is the window he goes. Can't see us getting anywhere near 50 million now. Will be around the 25million mark if even. Question is who will want him who can afford him? If wilf doesn't go this window he never will. no way he is being sold for that...if it was £70m last year its £60m now. if he goes for £60m thats £20m to utd, meaning the same as awb last summer...balance the books job so we dont lose £50m this season Edited by braunstoneagle (16 Jul 2020 6.38pm) ‘Football isn’t instant coffee.

He wanted to go last year and complained we stopped him byy asking too much. His poor form and lack of goals and assists will get him what he wants a reduced price and I am no longer bothered if he stays. He seems to lack the passion for the club he had, despite earning huge money. Who will buy him? A team that can afford a luxury player. My worry is not losing him. It is not replacing him. I suspect the money will balance the books and wage saving be passed off as helping us cope with FFP. We are at best standing still which in football terms equals going backwards.
