Rio Ferdinand is urging Newcastle United to sign Crystal Palace forward Wilfried Zaha, even if it means selling Allan Saint-Maximin.
The Ivory Coast International is out of contract at Palace in the summer and therefore is being heavily linked with a move away from Selhurst Park.
The 29-year-old has yet to agree a new deal with the Eagles, meaning he is free to negotiate a pre-contract with overseas clubs as of January 1.
Former Manchester United defender Ferdinand believes the addition of a talent such as Zaha would make the Magpies a real 'problem' for the rest of the Premier League.
