Zaha unlikely to return to Palace

Crystal Palace manager Tony Pulis has revealed that Wifried Zaha is unlikely to move back to Selhurst Park on loan this month, ESPN understands.

The winger has been linked with a temporary move away from Old Trafford after struggling to make an impact on the first team since joining up with Premier League champions in the summer.

He has made just four appearances under David Moyes – two as a substitute in the league and one start in both the Community Shield and the League Cup.

A number of Premier League clubs including Swansea City, Cardiff City, Southampton and Fulham have also been linked with the England international, with talk of a return to the Eagles also mooted.

However Pulis, who became manager of the London club six weeks ago, has said that whilst he would be interested in taking Zaha on loan, he doesn’t think it will be a possibility.
