Crystal Palace star Wilfried Zaha steps up recovery from injury as he shares video of himself shoulder pressing

Wilfried Zaha continues to defy the medical professionals at Crystal Palace as he edges closer to a return to Premier League action much faster than anticipated.

Zaha injured his knee during the Eagles' draw with Newcastle at the start of February, but is already running and back lifting weights in the gym.

The Ivory Coast international has been posting regular updates on his Instagram account, and the latest showed him shoulder-pressing some weights at Palace's Beckenham training ground.
