According to talkSPORTS and Sky Sports presenter Jim White, Everton could make a substantial bid for Crystal Palace forward Wilfried Zaha. Arsenal are keen on the Ivory Coast international, but the Selhurst Park outfit aren’t ready to let him go for anything less than £80 million after selling Aaron Wan-Bissaka to Manchester United for £50 million. Everton are looking to break into top-six and have demonstrated in the last two summer transfer windows that they can spend big in the market, splashing £45 million and £50 million on the signings of Gylfi Sigurðsson and Richarlison respectively.
With the Gunners not willing to meet Palace’s valuation or even go close, the Toffees look ready to beat them to his signature, and it is beginning to look very likely following the latest report.
