He's on loan there isn't he? shit too of course

That whole thing with Sorloth sounds a total mess.

He scored 27 goals (four fewer than Crystal Palace) last season and has apparently been attracting attention from big European clubs with €20m+ bids being touted around.

But he is still at Trabzonspor on a two year loan with no recall clause, and they are obliged to buy him for €6 million if he starts more than half their games next season. So it seems any deal to sell him elsewhere would need to be sanctioned by them, which they obviously won't do considering they could just sign him for next to nothing at the end of next season and sell him on for a tidy profit. Sounds like Prince Charming and co have really shit the bed on that one.

Mr Tumble is a life long Arsenal fan, to be fair to him, he’s never made a secret of it. When he was trying to engineer his escape from Palace to the Arse last year, I had Palace fans tell me he only supported Arsenal when Ian Wright, whom he idolised,moved there from Palace.
One small flaw in this, Ian Wright moved in 1991, Mr Tumble wasn’t born until 1992.

Aren't Arsenal meant to be buying Willian too? What's the matter with that club? They've got a bunch of defenders that can't defend and they buy attackers like Brighton buy centre backs.

Turkish press have reported that Trabzonspor have received a bid of 25 mil Euros for him, and there are 6 clubs interested in him.

Trabzonspor are holding out for a bid of 31 million Euros, cos they reckon they can get a clear 25 million profit.

Cheeky buggers.

Good grief. That's put a few cringe pipes under pressure of rupture.

Back to the nightclub incident, whilst a joke at Dibley's expense by his mates, it is still embarrassing. The last thing Dibley needs when trying to move is that sort of tackiness. It also impacts upon his value. Its well known that Dibley has maturity issues and this sort of thing does him, and the club trying to maximise his price tag, no favours. He should be a pissed off with his chums.

haha - good old palace. They really do know how to screw up! Things are looking amusingly bleak for them next season. Will be a major success if the scrape through again

Sky Sports News are reporting Borussia Dortmund, PSG and Monaco all want to sign Zaha.
If anything comes of the enquiries it will be interesting to see how much they can get for him.

I’ve heard Millwall have enquired about a loan and a view to buy for £10mil - wouldn’t have to move or worry about a car etc which was the thing that Made him struggle at Man Utd last time...

This would be so funny if it were true. £10m ... Won't ManU get a massive chunk of that too?

Good job they have £100m ring fenced that they could raid for cash.

This thread’s gone very quiet, hasn’t it? It seems Sporting Life have the measure of the situation?

https://www.sportinglife.com/football/news/will-zaha-move-in-this-window/183347

We seem to be at the point where a sizeable chunk of the Palace supporters realise he’s become a disruptive influence and that he needs to go to allow them to move on. The delicious irony is that, having realised this, they can’t shift him.

Lovely stuff!

Im not surprised he’s getting disruptive. He had the chance, last year, to end his career as another Wright but has been forced to contemplate forever being another Bright linked forever with the Jestermen.


TBH Leeds have kept me amused for the past few weeks so Zaha, his form (or lack) and his attitude have not even been on my radar. It’s nice to have new enemies in Yorkshit. Palace? Relegation fodder this year.

Lots of rumours from my mate in Barcelona that he could be off there. Should get in Espanyol’s squad if he gets given a car and feels settled.

Ouch that articles quite cutting and at odds with the media love for him.
