Everton willing to pay £60 million plus Tosun for Zaha

Everton are willing to pay £60 million plus Cenk Tosun for the services of Wilfried Zaha, according to the Telegraph.

The Crystal Palace star’s future has been up in the air all summer, with numerous clubs linked with signing him.

While the Eagles are desperate to keep hold of their most prized asset, it feels increasingly likely that he will leave Selhurst Park.

Everton are the latest club to show genuine interest in Zaha and they are now offering Tosun as part of the deal.

They are thought to be fearful that Chelsea will get there first, however, with the Blues planning to sign the Ivorian once their transfer ban is lifted.

Joining Chelsea is a move that could be more beneficial to Palace because Zaha would stay at the club for another year, before moving to Stamford Bridge.

The £60 million Everton have bid is believed to be “far closer” to Palace’s valuation of Zaha, rather than the £40 million offer that Arsenal tabled.
