Wilfried Zaha transfer truth explained as Chelsea hopeful of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang deal

Chelsea have an interest in Crystal Palace attacker Wilfried Zaha, but a move at this point is unlikely. football.london understands the 29-year-old winger has been in talks with Palace over the last 12 months regarding a new contract.

Zaha is currently in his second spell at Selhurst Park after re-signing for the south London club following a nightmare spell at Manchester United. The Ivorian has constantly been linked with a move away since re-joining the Eagles and with less than a year remaining on his contract, this summer could be the time he embarks on a new chapter.

However, while Chelsea have an interest in the Ivory Coast international, it's understood Zaha has a strong relationship with Palace chairman Steve Parish and the two have maintained very good dialogue over the past year when talking about signing a new contract. The Blues are yet to make official contact with Palace regarding a move but there have been talks with Zaha's entourage.
