This week @PalaceEaglesc0m discussed the potential future of Wilfried Zaha at Crystal Palace. The fan group asked fellow supporters whether they thought the English winger would remain a Palace player next season.
The winger originally left Crystal Palace back in 2013 for a fee of £10.58 million, seeking success at Manchester United. But after being loaned to Cardiff City and Crystal Palace during his Old Trafford stay, the Red Devils sold the player back to Palace for just £3.42 million in 2015.
Over his career, Zaha has played an incredible 350 games for Crystal Palace, scoring 56 goals and registering 70 assists in the process.
His future at Crystal Palace looks uncertain, however, and was even rumoured for a move to Chelsea in January.
He wants to go but no club will offer what Steve wants for him. Could get ugly.

We’ve ruined his career, he has been loyal to us. Let him go for 50 million, give him a chance to prove himself at the top. Where he won’t be the only attacking outlet, marker by 5 players, bullied week in week out.

Not a hope in hell and why would he while the current owners show zero ambition

Will Zaha stay at Crystal Palace next season?
Yes
No
However, there are many Palace fans who think Zaha is wasted at their club. They hope he gets his dream move. One thinks both parties will benefit from his absence, forcing Roy Hodgson to change his tactics.
Zaha has been failed by the club, he deserves to be playing with better players and for better managers.
A wasted opportunity by the club, the club needed to grow with him. It failed, I wish him well when he does leave.

Personally hope he’s set free, he deserves a club with ambition . I’d hate to think Crystal Palace wastes his career because our owners have no intention of going for Europe and are content to just survive

No.
And I do wonder if selling him helps the club to move on. The style of play is all through him, if he wasnt there maybe it would force a change?— Nads (@NadsShad) February 17, 2020
What do we think?
Fans will have to wait until the summer before any deal is complete. If he does leave, however, it is clear that he will depart Crystal Palace with the blessings of many fans.
