With the news breaking that Crystal Palace were interested in a loan move for Wilfried Zaha, the football romantics pipped up.
After all, having left for Galatasaray in 2023 after a legendary 11-year affiliation with the Eagles, to see him return having finally got the Champions League experience he craved would have been so heartwarming.

For whatever reason, the deal had fallen through, but now Zaha’s availability had become public knowledge.
So, David Ornstein was next to update fans, ‘Leicester City working on deal to sign Wilfred Zaha from Galatasaray. 31yo winger available on season-long loan – not done but #LCFC in talks to do deal (would include loan fee). Crystal Palace also explored possibility.’
