# Everton not looking to sign Zaha this summer

Premier League side Everton are not looking to sign Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha this summer, as reported on [The Times](https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/wilfried-zahas-form-suggests-everton-were-right-to-look-elsewhe-0dj3zddfc).

As reported on[Sky Sports](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11671/11779180/wilfried-zaha-evertons-70m-plus-james-mccarthy-and-cenk-tosun-bid-rejected-by-crystal-palace), the Toffees had a £70m bid for Ivory Coast international rejected last summer.

However, the Merseyside club [rejected the chance](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49159661) to make a second bid for Zaha, who ended up staying at Selhurst Park.

[The report](https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/wilfried-zahas-form-suggests-everton-were-right-to-look-elsewhe-0dj3zddfc) confirms that Everton may be on the hunt for a right-winger, but Zaha’s average form and incredibly high price means he won’t be considered by the Toffees.

### READ CRYSTAL PALACE VERDICT

The 27-year-old only has three goals and five assists in 26 appearances in all competitions ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/wilfried-zaha/leistungsdaten/spieler/145988)), which we believe is not good enough for a big-money move in the summer.

Zaha did provide the assist for Christian Benteke’s goal during the defeat last Saturday but other than that, he was rarely a threat in our opinion.

This makes us feel that Palace may not be able to ask for such a high price for Zaha in the summer because his form isn’t as sparkling underRoyHpdgson as his recent speculation would suggest.

However, his current deal with Palace [expires in the summer of 2023,](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/wilfried-zaha/profil/spieler/145988) so the club is under no obligation to sell him for a bargain price.
