Wilfried Zaha will make a decision on his Crystal Palace future this week, according to a report. 

Zaha, 30, is out of contract and has been offered a new deal that would make him the highest-paid player in the club’s history. 

There are a string of clubs who want to sign Zaha, including Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia. A number of Premier League players have joined the Saudi Pro League this summer as the country flexes its financial muscle in the European football market. 

The Evening Standard have reported that Zaha has been on honeymoon and will make a decision upon his return. 

Napoli, Lazio and Paris Saint-German have also been linked with the Ivory Coast forward. 

However, the report claims that Palace are confident that Zaha will sign a new deal with them. 

Zaha has yet to have a conversation with manager Roy Hodgson, who signed a new one-year contract this month. 

Zaha has made 455 appearances for Palace, scoring 90 goals. 

He made one permanent move away from the club when he joined Manchester United for £15million in January 2013. 

But the switch didn’t work out as Zaha made just four appearances in all competitions, two of them starts. 

Zaha returned permanently to Selhurst Park in February 2015.
