Arsenal 'to beat rivals and sign Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha'

Arsenal have reportedly moved to the front of the pack in the chase for Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha.

The 20-year-old, who received his first England senior call-up last month, is expected to leave Selhurst Park due to a hoard of interest from clubs in the top flight.

It is understood that Wilfried, who is an Arsenal supporter, has told friends that he wants to move to the Emirates and a £12m deal is expected to be agreed, according to The Express.

Liverpool and Manchester United have also been linked with an interest in the youngster.
