Rumour: Alan Pardew set to sign Wilfried Zaha on loan

Wilfried Zaha

The 21 year old England international might soon sign for the Magpies on loan. Alan Pardew was aiming to sign the highly rated midfielder in the winter transfer window of 2012 but lost in the bidding war to Manchester United who then landed the 21 year old .

Zaha has not had many starts under new Manchester United boss David Moyes. He has played just 2 games for Manchester United in the Barclays Premier League. Though Zaha had impressed everyone in the Championship, he has not been getting sufficient playing time at Manchester United. With his minimum starts at Manchester United, Zaha’s chances to represent England at the World Cup will also be minimized.

Everton are also said to be interested in signing the England midfielder on loan from Manchester United and will also face a stiff competition from Newcastle United in signing Wilfried Zaha on loan.
