ARSENAL are set to launch a shock move for Wilfried Zaha but face competition from a host of clubs, according to reports.
The Crystal Palace star is set to leave the club on a free transfer this summer with his contract expiring.
Foot Mercato report that the Gunners are interested in the player and would be able to afford his supposedly hefty wages.
Arsenal were interested in Zaha back in 2019 but instead opted to sign Nicolas Pepe from Lille.
The likes of Bundesliga duo Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund are also keen on snapping up the Ivorian international on a free transfer.
Ligue 1 side Monaco are also in the race but may reportedly be priced out.
