PSG 'eye £100m Zaha as Neymar replacement'

Paris Saint-Germain are eyeing an £100m swoop for Crystal Palace attacker Wilfried Zaha as a replacement for Neymar, according to a report.

Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly eyeing an £100m swoop for Crystal Palace attacker Wilfried Zaha.

Zaha was strongly linked with moves to Arsenal and Everton during the English transfer window.

However, Palace held firm on their £100m asking price for the Ivory Coast international, who helped his side record a 2-1 win over Manchester United on Saturday afternoon.

According to The Mirror, PSG are preparing to send a delegation to London for talks over a big-money swoop for the 26-year-old, who could be Neymar's replacement at the Parc des Princes.

Neymar continues to be linked with both Barcelona and Real Madrid, with the Brazil international widely expected to leave Thomas Tuchel's side before the September 2 deadline.

Zaha only signed a new five-year contract at Selhurst Park last summer, but it is understood that the Eagles would be prepared to sell over the next couple of weeks if their asking price is met.

PSG have also been linked with Juventus attacker Paulo Dybala as they prepare for Neymar's expected exit.
