Manchester United have pulled the rug off Arsenal’s feet in the race to sign wonder kid, Wilfried Zaha from Crystal Palace after agreeing a staggering £15 million deal for sign the hot prospect.
With Palace guarnateed to pocket £10 million initially, the extra £5 million will come in appearances and achievements and the whole package is more than the Eagles could refuse for their young attacker.
The final sums are a triumph for the Championship side and also show just how badly Fergie wanted Zaha ahead of rivals Arsenal and Tottenham.
Zaha was given permission to discuss the move with his potential new boss and met him in a top London hotel on Sunday night.
