Wilfried Zaha looks set to reject an offer worth a staggering £30m a year to join Cristiano Ronaldo at Al-Nassr but Luka Modric is considering a move to the Saudi Arabian side Al-Hilal after more than a decade at Real Madrid.

Zaha, who will be a free agent when his contract with Crystal Palace expires at the end of the month, held more talks with Al-Nassr last week as they attempt to improve their squad after missing out on the Saudi title to Al-Ittihad. The 30-year-old is being offered a two-year contract worth about three times the £200,000 a week on the table from Palace, but it is understood he would prefer to stay in Europe. He has attracted interest from Paris Saint-Germain in recent days.
