Manchester City 'line up £50m Wilfried Zaha bid'

Manchester City are reportedly lining up a summer bid for Crystal Palace star Wilfried Zaha.

According to The Sun, the Sky Blues are willing to part with £50m to land the Ivory Coast international but they face competition from a host of other Premier League clubs.

Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal and Chelsea are also said to have been monitoring Zaha's progress at Palace this season.

City reportedly see Zaha as a potential alternative to Leicester City forward Riyad Mahrez, whom they failed to sign during the winter transfer window.

Sky Blues boss Pep Guardiola's summer shopping list is also said to include Shakhtar Donetsk holding midfielder Fred and Spanish international Thiago Alcantara, among other big names.
