Wilfried Zaha will Leave Crystal Palace in January 2020

DBasia.news –  Federico Pastorello’s agent stated that Wilfried Zaha will leave Crystal Palace in the January 2020 winter transfer window. Pastorello believes that Zaha is more suitable to play for an elite club.

Zaha wanted to leave at the start of the season, but failed to join rivals, Arsenal or Everton after Palace defended him.

After failing to move, Zaha prefers to focus on his game and perform brilliantly this season. That performance has made him linked to Chelsea, who hopes to bring him after their transfer ban was lifted.

Pastorello revealed that the Ivory Coast national team players could be involved in the transfer window next January.

“I think he (Zaha) really deserves a new challenge and an elite club, as he is really a top player,” said Pastorello, who is also the agent tp Inter Milan striker, Romelu Lukaku, told Sky Sports News, Friday (6/12) .

“It’s surprising because I read about the possibility of moving in the summer, but he continued to stay. However, this season he proved that he was focused and concentrated, so this could be a good opportunity in the January transfer window.”

“The January exchanges are (usually) calm. January transfers are generally one third more than in the summer. However, there are some great and interesting opportunities for clubs that sell, as maybe a club really needs the player and is ready to pay a little higher due to an emergency. “

“There have been a lot of changes in coaches in the English Premier League and you need to know their needs tactically. So Tottenham might be a little more active in the transfer window, maybe also Manchester United.

“Let’s see what happens at Chelsea too, as the ban is uncertain. If the ban is lifted they might move. In Europe there are clubs like Inter and AC Milan that might need to improve their squad.”

After a slow start to the season, Zaha has now scored two goals and contributed one assist for Palace when Roy Hodgson’s team sat comfortably in seventh position in the English Premier League.

Together with Zaha, Pastorello also estimates the amount of interest in his client Napoli striker, Dries Mertens, in January.

Pastorello feels Mertens will be the target of many clubs when his contract runs out with Napoli at the end of the season.

“He is an extraordinary player. I think he will soon be the best goalscorer in club history. He has proven himself in the Champions League as he continues to score goals in the competition and the national team,” he added.

“I think the players likes it, with the contract running out, it’s an amazing opportunity, maybe even a January transfer.”

“Every player wants to play in the English Premier League at least once. So I think he would love to play in the English Premier League. I know him well tactically and technically and I think he can become a successful player for the English Premier League.”
