The Gunners have planned to submit a formal bid for Crystal Palace starlet, Wilfried Zaha as the Emirates side looks to add to its striking options during the January transfer window. Palace owners have clarified that they would not be interested in selling the forward mid-season, unless an irresistible offer is made.

Arsene Wenger is following his time-tested strategy of waiting till the inflated prices go down for the signing of a key player. Zaha, who would cost near £18 million, has been the key target of many premier clubs. With Theo Walcott’s probable departure, the Crystal Palace teenager might get more opportunities at the Emirates side.
