Manchester United are reportedly lining up a bid worth £70m for Crystal Palace forward Wilfried Zaha ahead of next summer's transfer window.

Manchester United will reportedly launch a bid worth £70m for Crystal Palace forward Wilfried Zaha in next summer's transfer window.

The Ivory Coast international was signed by United in January 2013, only to return to Selhurst Park in 2015 after only managing four senior appearances before being sent out on loan.

Zaha made a concerted effort to seek pastures new over the summer, with Everton reportedly launching a bid worth around £70m, but the deal was blocked by Palace chairman Steve Parish.

According to The Sun, the Red Devils are leading the race for Zaha and will make a bid worth £70m for the player next summer.

United have placed strong emphasis on signing a forward who can attack down the right and are said to be interested in Jadon Sancho as well.

Zaha was also met with an approach from Arsenal over the previous transfer window, with the Gunners making a bid of £40m that was roundly rejected by the South London club.
