Wilfried Zaha vows to bounce back from injury setback

Crystal Palace boss Wilfried Zaha has vowed to be "playing again as soon as possible" after being ruled out for the next month with a knee problem.

Zaha sustained the injury during the early stages of last weekend's 1-1 draw with Newcastle United, although the 25-year-old was able to complete the 90 minutes.

Hodgson confirmed during Friday's press conference that the former Manchester United attacker was facing a spell on the sidelines, but the Ivory Coast international has vowed to bounce back.

After seeing a specialist over the last few days, I can sadly confirm that I will be on the sidelines for the next few weeks. Thank you to the fans for all your support and I hope to back playing again as soon as possible! 🙏🏿 #CPFC pic.twitter.com/SRQD2BA4JX
