Wilfried Zaha next club odds: Palace winger evens to join Ligue 1 following PSG links

Wilfried Zaha is now priced at evens to move to France this summer following the expiration of his contract at Crystal Palace and strong rumours linking him to PSG.

The Ivorian winger now looks likely to make the switch to Ligue 1, according to talkSPORT BET, having previously been odds on to move to Saudi Arabia.

The Ivorian winger came through the academy at Crystal Palace and has spent all but 18 months of his professional career at Selhurst Park, amassing more than 450 appearances for the Eagles.

The 30-year-old spent two years on the books of Manchester United, and was Sir Alex Ferguson's final ever signing for the club back in 2013, but spent 18 of those 24 months out on loan, with two spells back at Crystal Palace and one at Cardiff.

Zaha then came back to Palace on a permanent deal and has spent the last eight and a half years being their star player, though with his contract in south London now up, this may be the summer the winger makes his move away.

The winger has most recently been linked with a move to the current French champions PSG, as a possible replacement for Lionel Messi, who has announced his move to Inter Miami following his contract's expiration.

Zaha had previously been as high as 14/1 to move to Ligue 1 this summer, but those odds have no been slashed after recent speculation linking the French giants to the winger.

Wilfried Zaha next club odds (talkSPORT BET):

  • Any French club - 1/1
  • Any Saudi Arabian club - 5/2
  • Any Italian club - 4/1
  • Atletico Madrid - 6/1
  • Arsenal - 16/1
  • Borussia Dortmund - 20/1
  • Newcastle - 20/1
  • Tottenham - 20/1
  • West Ham - 20/1
  • Leicester - 33/1
  • Leipzig - 33/1

The Saudi Arabian league looks set to sign a number of top quality talent from Europe this summer, and Zaha could be the latest name to join the lucrative league.

It has already been announced that Real Madrid legend Karim Benzema and Chelsea's World Cup winning French midfielder N'Golo Kante will be making their way from Europe to Saudi Arabia.

Atletico Madrid had also been believed to be the club in pole position to sign the Ivorian, having previously been 3/1 favourites, with the Spanish side can offer the winger Champions League football, something Zaha is yet to experience.

A potential move to Italy has also been rumoured, with odds dropping to 4/1, with the likes of Roma and AC Milan having been linked with an approach for the former Manchester United man.

Diego Simeone's name also holds a lot of weight and is thought as one of the world's top football managers, so could be a big pull for the 30-year-old.

Atleti don't have many natural wingers in their side, with just Yannick Carrasco and Angel Correa as their out and out wingers, the former of which with just one year on his contract left, which could imply Zaha gets an instant spot in the starting eleven should he make the move.

Arsenal are the Premier League side with the shortest odds to extend Zaha's stay in England, though are slightly behind in the chase at 16/1.

The Gunners led the Premier League for a large majority of the Premier League season that's just finished and will be having a busy summer as they look to mount another charge for their first league title since 2004.

Mikel Arteta can also offer Zaha Champions League football next season following their second place finish, which could prove a big pull.

Borussia Dortmund, Newcastle, Tottenham and West Ham are all tied at 20/1 to make a move for the Crystal Palace winger, of which the former two will be in the Champions League group stage next season.

Leipzig and Leicester are both priced slightly further back at 33/1 to sign the winger.
