Rio Ferdinand urges Arsenal to correct £72m transfer mistake amid Newcastle and Chelsea links

Rio Ferdinand has urged Arsenal to sign Wilfried Zaha when his contract at Crystal Palace expires. The Gunners had the chance to sign the winger a few years ago but instead opted to make a £72million move for Nicolas Pepe.

Zaha has gone from strength to strength this season and is one of the main reasons why the Eagles already sit in a healthy 10th position in the league. With the prospect of a free transfer on the horizon, the Ivorian is likely to capture the interest of some of the biggest clubs in England.

Chelsea, Tottenham and Newcastle are believed to be monitoring his situation, but he's long been linked with a move to N5 and the club he supported as a child, Arsenal.
