Chelsea make contact with Wilfried Zaha?

Chelsea have reportedly made contact with Wilfried Zaha's camp ahead of a potential move to Stamford Bridge from Crystal Palace next summer.

The Ivory Coast international was keen on a move away last summer, only for chairman Steve Parish to block a potential £70m move to Everton.

Reports have suggested that Zaha, who is determined to secure a transfer away from Selhurst Park, has attracted interest from Chelsea.

According to The Independent, agent Federico Pastorello has spoken to Chelsea's director of football Marina Granovskaia about a potential transfer.

Chelsea, currently under a transfer ban, are expected to spend big on a marquee signing next summer, with other reports claiming that Jadon Sancho is on the club's radar.

Arsenal made a concerted effort to sign Zaha over the summer, tabling an offer of around £40m, but this figure was roundly rejected by the South London club, who value the winger at around £80m.
