Everton fans react to being linked with Crystal Palace forward Wilfried Zaha

Everton have been linked with Crystal Palace forward Wilfried Zaha, but they will have to part with £80 million to have a chance of beating Arsenal to his signature and prising him away from Selhurst Park. Having splashed the cash and broken the bank to sign Gylfi Sigurðsson and Richarlison in each of the last two transfer windows, the Toffees could be willing to go all out for the Ivory Coast international. Zaha is arguably the best winger outside the top-six, and Everton’s chances of making Europe will be boosted by signing him. Some Goodison Park faithful aren’t convinced spending £80 million on the 26-year-old makes sense, though, and here is how they reacted to the links on Twitter:

Zaha has 35 goals in 180 games for Palace, but is just only approaching his peak and has the potential to become a 20-goal per season forward.
