Manchester United are set to receive a financial boost if Wilfried Zaha leaves Crystal Palace this summer.

Zaha has reiterated his desire to leave Palace and chairman Steve Parish won’t stand in the Ivory Coast international’s way if a suitable bid is made for him.

Palace sold Zaha to United in 2013 for £10.58million but he ended up playing just four times for the Red Devils and was sent on loan to Cardiff.

Following a loan spell at Palace, Zaha returned to Selhurst Park on a permanent basis in February 2015, with United insisting on inserting a sell-on clause in the £6million deal.

Tottenham and Everton are among the clubs that have been linked with Zaha, who could be sold for £40million. In such circumstances, United would receive £10million.  

Across his two spells at Palace Zaha has made 393 appearances.
