Zaha signs new five-year deal at Crystal Palace

Author: Agencies

LONDON: Wilfried Zaha has signed a new five-year contract with Crystal Palace to extend his stay at Selhurst Park until 2023, the Premier League club said on Wednesday. British media reported the 25-year-old forward agreed a new deal worth 130,000 pounds ($165,360) per week, making him the highest-paid player at the club. The Ivorian international netted a career-high nine league goals and made three assists to help Palace secure an 11th-place finish last season after a disastrous start. Zaha, who had an unhappy season at Manchester United in 2013-14 before returning to Palace, had been linked with potential moves to Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur during the transfer window but no deal materialised.
