Premier League clubs approve changes to associated party transaction rules
The proposed changes came into play after an independent tribunal found some aspects of the APT rules to be unlawful following Manchester City’s lawsuit.
Wilfried Zaha is a man in demand, with many clubs vying for his signature and the Crystal Palace winger has perhaps added an extra million to his price tag with some ridiculous freestyle skills while in Scandinavia for the Eagles’ pre-season.
After losing his way at Manchester United, the Ivorian winger found his groove with the capital club and on the back of his performances for the past two seasons, it can be said that he’s ready to make the jump to a ‘big club’ again.
The 25-year-old found the back of the net nine times in the 2017-18 campaign, along with plenty of assists and a video of his skills is going viral on Instagram:

Roy Hogdson’s men got their pre-season away with a 2-2 draw with Danish side FC Helsingør, with Zaha coming on in the second-half for a lively display.
While the Ivorian was unable to find the back of the net, he did look sharp and any potential scouts watching would only have gone back impressed.

Palace open their Premier League season away to newcomers Fulham on August 11.
Hogdson has repeatedly stated that Zaha is not for sale, but a bid in the region of £50 million would surely test the club’s resolve.
If the latest rumours are to be believed, German giants Borussia Dortmund are interested in his services.

Everton, Arsenal and a host of other sides are also monitoring the situation and with four weeks to go before the start of the Premier League season, Zaha could well be in new colours sooner rather than later.
