Zaha has been linked to a big money move away from Selhurst Park

After a stunning season with Crystal Palace, many Premier League clubs - including both Manchester clubs - are said to be eyeing a swoop for Zaha. The winger had signed a new long-term contract last summer, but he could be tempted to join a bigger club for the sake of his future.

Crystal Palace survived relegation under Roy Hodgson this season and the dreadlocked star would have to be credited for his wonderful performances. The 25-year-old scored 9 goals and provided 5 assists in 29 league appearances for his club.

In most of the matches, he was deployed as a forward where he was able to utilize his blistering pace against defenders. That position has been proven to be his best playing position but Zaha is also capable of playing on the wings.

The Ivory Coast international was Sir Alex Ferguson's last signing before he retired, however, Zaha struggled during his time at Old Trafford and eventually went back to Palace.

Despite his short-lived career with the Red Devils, he is still highly regarded by the former Manchester United manager. He has now started to realize his full potential and his future is looking bright.

Getting him onboard the Manchester City team will provide more competition for Raheem Sterling and motivate the whole team to step up their performances when necessary. Even if the player does not make the starting lineup, he will be able to inject some energy into the team when called upon as a substitute.
