ARTETA ADMIRES WINGER WHO DREAMS OF ARSENAL MOVE, LOVES PLAYING AT THE EMIRATES STADIUM
Mikel Arteta admires Wilfried Zaha, and with his contract expiring next summer, Arsenal could make a move for the Crystal Palace winger.
Zaha is undoubtedly on his way to becoming one of the most sought-after free agents on the market.
The Ivorian winger's contract expires at the end of the season, and a new deal with Crystal Palace now appears unlikely.
Zaha turns 30 in November, and the time may be right for him to advance after so many years of service to the Eagles.Palace have always wanted big money for Zaha, but the prospect of signing him for free will appeal to many clubs.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is said to be a fan of Zaha, and the Gunners could make a move for him.
Arsenal currently has two young and exciting wingers in Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka, but adding an experienced wide man could provide Arteta with the perfect balance.
Zaha has a lot of talent, especially when it comes to using skill to get past defenders, and he has worked hard to improve his end product over the years.
