Zaha Close To £75m Switch To Chelsea.
Chelsea are in pole position to sign £75 million-rated Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha, the Mirror claims.
Tottenham, initially leading the race for the signing of the Ivorian forward, have dropped their interest in the player due to the Eagles' asking price.
Chelsea are now cleared to sign the 25-year-old before the Premier League summer transfer window closes on August 9.
Zaha rejected an improved deal worth £125,000-a-week earlier this summer and has told his teammates of his desire to join Maurizio Sarri's team before the transfer window closes on August 9.
The Ivorian star who has also attracted interest from Tottenham, might table a transfer request to force his move out of Selhurst Park.
