• German giants wanted forward until end of the season • Palace determined Zaha will not leave for less than £80mCrystal Palace have rejected an attempt by Bayern Munich to sign Wilfried Zaha on loan until the end of the season, with the Premier League club determined not to allow their prized asset to leave for less than £80m. The German club are still hopeful of signing Leroy Sané from Manchester City at the end of the season, having failed last summer, but could return to Zaha if unsuccessful. Palace have reluctantly accepted that Zaha can leave if a club matches his valuation but, with Chelsea’s interest reported to have cooled, it remains to be seen whether he will move this month. It is understood that USM would be due compensation if he does complete a transfer because Zaha is under contract there for six more months. They are said to still be on good terms, with Zaha’s brother employed by USM.
