Yifang are prepared to make Zaha one of the best-paid players on the planet by offering the Ivory Coast international minimum wages of £44m after tax over a four-year contract.
Zaha has developed into arguably the best player in the Premier League outside those playing for the ’top-six’ clubs and has previously been linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspurs and Chelsea. Palace managed the 26 old in last summer but lucrative offering from Chinese Super League is hard to handle.
Zaha would also earn a further £2.5m in bonuses, and Dalian Yifang would also fund regular first-class travel to allow the winger to return to England apart from his wage. Dalian Yifang will make a formal offer for Zaha once the transfer window opens in January, but Crystal Palace are thought to be adamant that he will not leave the club. The Ivory Coast international is one of Palace’s most important players, and they will be in no rush to sell Zaha, given he still has over four years remaining, his current deal expires in 2023
