According to reports, Chelsea have revived their interest in signing Crystal Palace star Wilfried Zaha.

Zaha has been linked with a move to Chelsea this summer, but the links have never been strong.

However, it now seems that the Blues could make an offer to Crystal Palace for their star forward before transfer deadline day.

Chelsea had tried to sign Zaha last summer, but Crystal Palace had requested over £80m for the Ivorian international.

The 29-year-old now has a year left on his deal with Crystal Palace, and Palace are considering a sale, as he would leave for free at the end of the season.

Crystal Palace manager Patrick Vieira is desperate to keep Zaha, but the player has an ambition to play in the Champions League.

Chelsea had been in talks with Barcelona for a deal for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, but Barcelona are seeking around £30m for the 33-year-old. And this is believed to have led to a breakdown in the transfer for now.

Chelsea are trying other options including Zaha as an alternative to the Aubameyang deal.

The transfer window closes on Thursday night at 11pm.
