It appears that Crystal Palace are approaching the transfer window with vigour, in the hope that any deals that are done will give them the impetus to start the 2023/24 Premier League season in the best possible manner.
The south Londoners are believed to have made Wilfried Zaha an offer that would make him the club’s best paid player ever, though the attacker hasn’t accepted it at this stage.
With a month still to go until the start of the season, there’s plenty of time to have an agreement in place, unless Zaha decides his future lies elsewhere.
It’s understood that he wants to see more ambition from the club before committing the next four years to the Selhurst Park outfit.
Schuurs was believed to have been courted by Newcastle, whilst Tuttosport (h/t Tuttomercatoweb) noted that Liverpool had failed with a bid.
If Roy Hodgson and Palace chairman, Steve Parish, are able to get this one over the line, it could go some way to convincing Zaha to stay and others to follow.
To that end, Schuurs could be one of their most important acquisitions for years.
