Zaha is £20m; Palace tell Arsenal, Liverpool and City


Crystal Palace club's co-chairman Steve Parish has declared that England Under 21 star Wilfried Zaha will not be leave the club for anything less than £20million.
 
The winger, 19, has attracted attention this season and scouts from Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City have all been on his heels.
 
Parish told the South London Press that: 'He is an extraordinary talent.
 
'I said at the start of the season that keeping hold of Wilf would be like spending a lot of money on a transfer. Other sides can fly their kites but it would take £20m before we even got interested.

'He has got the lot, provided he keeps his feet on the ground and continues working so hard on his game - then it will all come.
 
'People would have to compensate us accordingly for losing his talent - that is what a transfer fee is.
 
'All the teams have got to understand that you get £60m in TV money if you get into the Premier League, which is where we want to get. So we’d need to be compensated for reducing our chances of getting there.'
