Crystal Palace attacker Wilfried Zaha is reportedly keen on a summer move to Premier League giants Liverpool.
Despite numerous speculation regarding his future in recent transfer windows, the 29-year-old has stayed on the books at Selhurst Park for more than seven years.
Zaha has begun the 2022-23 Premier League season strongly for the Eagles, scoring five goals and setting up one more in nine games.
The Ivory Coast international scored the game-winning goal in Tuesday’s 2-1 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers, where he also stood out for his all-around aggressive effort.
However, Zaha is set to become a free agent at the end of the season after failing to extend his contract at Selhurst Park since signing new terms in 2018.
Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur were both said to be interested in signing Zaha in the summer transfer window, but neither team made a move.
According to a September report, Palace had offered the ex-Manchester United star a new long-term contract, as Vieira wants to lock him down before he is free to speak to foreign clubs in January.
According to Calciomercato, Zaha is still indecisive about his future, but the attacker is “very fond” of Liverpool and would welcome a switch to Jurgen Klopp’s side.
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp underwent a mini-restructuring of his attacking ranks in the summer, as Sadio Mane, Divock Origi, and Takumi Minamino all departed the club.

The Reds have surged above Brighton & Hove Albion into seventh in the Premier League standings and will look for a third consecutive victory when they go to Nottingham Forest on Saturday.
Meanwhile, Palace, for whom Zaha has 88 goals and 74 assists in 439 games, are ranked 10th ahead of their trip to Merseyside to play Everton this weekend.
