Liverpool 'aware of Wilfried Zaha situation' as new twist could see January sale

Liverpool and Arsenal reportedly remain "in the hunt" for Crystal Palace star man Wilfried Zaha with the attacker into the final year of his contract at Selhurst Park.

Zaha's move to Manchester United in 2013 promised so much, but didn't quite work out for the Ivory Coast international as he completed a switch back to Crystal Palace in 2015.

The forward has been linked with a move for years and now he may get his chance to play Champions League football and make his mark on the top of the Premier League once his contract expires in the summer.

Premier League leaders Arsenal are said to be "long-term admirers" of Zaha and with them being likely to qualify for the Champions League next season, they may stand a good chance in securing Zaha.

According to 90min, there could be the possible twist of Crystal Palace opting to sell Zaha in January rather than allowing him to leave for free in the summer.

Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea are all said to be "aware" of Zaha's situation as interest increases in the man who has troubled plenty of elite defences.
