Zaha hands in transfer request at Crystal Palace ahead of deadline day -

Crystal Palace winger, Wilfried Zaha, has handed in a transfer request at the club, as he seeks to force through a big-money move before deadline day, Sky Sports reports.

The Eagles have rejected Everton’s latest approach of £70million plus James McCarthy and Cenk Tosun for Zaha.

The Ivory Coast star’s future has been a topic for discussion all summer, as Arsenal were keen to take him to the Emirates.

However, the Gunners were put off by his price tag and signed Nicolas Pepe from Lille instead.

Everton, however, remain very interested in Zaha, but Palace are adamant about the fee they want for him.

It remains to be seen whether the Toffees will go back in with more money before 5pm on Thursday.
