Wilfried Zaha takes to Twitter to apologise to Leeds United fans for making a rude hand gesture towards them.

Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha has issued an apology to supporters of Leeds United for a hand gesture that he made at them yesterday afternoon.

The England international was given a hostile reception from the travelling faithful at Selhurst Park, having recently agreed to join Leeds's rivals Manchester United in the summer.

Having heard the taunts, 20-year-old Zaha aimed his middle figures towards the Leeds fans - an act that he now regrets.

"On that note I also wanted to apologise for the gesture I did towards the Leeds fans in yesterday's game. Very unprofessional from me," he wrote on Twitter.

United are believed to have parted with around £12m to sign Zaha.
