Wilfried Zaha close to Crystal Palace deal

Manchester United's out-of-favour winger Wilfried Zaha looks to be closing in on a permanent move to Crystal Palace.

The England international has failed to settle at Old Trafford since his switch from the Eagles two season ago.

Zaha, who is currently plying his trade on loan at the Eagles, has earlier insisted of his desire to sign a permanent contract.

Widespread reports now claim that the London side are likely to secure the player's services on a long-term deal before today's transfer deadline.
