On June 22, according to football journalist David Ornstein, Chelsea has withdrawn from negotiations to sign Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha due to financial complications.
The 22-year-old French winger Zaha has already demonstrated impressive abilities at Crystal Palace. In the 2023-24 season, he featured in 19 matches, scoring 10 goals and providing 6 assists, setting a personal best for goals in a single campaign. Not only is Zaha adept at dribbling and scoring, but he also excels at creating opportunities for his teammates, displaying great versatility.
During the 2023-24 season, Chelsea endured a trophyless campaign, failing to secure any titles. In the Premier League, they finished sixth with 18 wins, 9 draws, and 11 losses, accumulating 63 points. This late surge secured them a spot in European competition, qualifying for the Europa Conference League. For Chelsea, the aim is to regroup and regain competitiveness across all fronts in the 2024-25 season, with a return to the Champions League as a key objective. The withdrawal from the Zaha transfer discussions comes as a significant setback for the club.
