Liverpool could sign Crystal Palace star for free and he is 'very fond' of Reds

Wilfried Zaha would be interested in a move to Liverpool if Jurgen Klopp wanted him, according to reports. And he could cost the Reds nothing.

The former Manchester United winger is currently in his second spell with Crystal Palace and has been banging in the goals for the Eagles, scoring 14 times this calendar year, including five in nine appearances this season.

The 29-year-old is in the final year of his contract at Selhurst Park and is free to speak to other clubs from January. And according to Calciomercato, given a choice, Zaha would be turning out for Liverpool next season as he is 'very fond' of the club.

Despite being close to 30, a mid-season move for the Palace star could solve a problem for Klopp, who currently has both Diogo Jota and Luis Diaz out injured.

Previous comments by the German manager suggest he is a fan of the skilful forward, who gave Palace the lead against the Reds in the opening match of the season at Anfield this season.

After the Liverpool beat beat the Eagles 4-3 back in 2019, Klopp said: "They are really good at counter attacks and set pieces, Wilfried Zaha is a world-class player and he gets into a one-on-one situation and we’re one down."

Zaha was on target again on Tuesday night when he scored the winner against Wolverhampton Wanderers. Since manager Patrick Vieira took charge of the South London club, Zaha has hit an impressive 20 goals in 46 appearances.
