Wilfried Zaha to Chelsea is a transfer rumour that continues to gather some momentum. The Ivorian has been linked to a Stamford Bridge switch in the past when Antonio Conte was in charge but nothing materialised back then at the time.
Crystal Palace used his contract length to demand £60-70million from the likes of the Blues and Arsenal, who also have been credited with an interest in the past. Fast forward to the present and with Todd Boehly currently undergoing a mass exodus of transfer outgoings with Timo Werner the latest to be confirmed out of the door, new attackers are on the agenda for the new owners ahead of the September 1 deadline.
With Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang expected to be the main striker target as Chelsea awaits a final 'green light' from Barcelona to make their moves, it is understood that a new wide player could also be on the cards as Callum Hudson-Odoi's loan exit looms closer despite his next club not being known for certain. In fact, Chelsea could repeat a Marc Cucurella trick to try and get what they want in this situation. Brighton received Levi Colwill on loan in a separate deal to the £63m transfer operation that the Blues completed last Friday.
