Arsenal target Wilfried Zaha is expected to come back to Crystal Palace, according to his current club boss Roy Hodgson.

The Englishman believes Zaha will stay at Palace. The winger was in brilliant form for last season and wanted a move to a big club this season with Arsenal tipped to be his destination as he was a childhood fan of the club.

However, his boss has said otherwise.

“He has not spoken to me. I don’t know if he’s spoken to the club [about leaving],” Palace boss Hodgson told reporters.

“As far as I’m concerned, he is coming back, he is our player and I’ve been given no information that the club is interested in selling him at the moment.

“I’m just expecting him back, looking forward to working with him and seeing some of the things he can do for us.

“I think he has got another 10 days or another week of holiday. I think he is back after we play Bristol City [on July 27] and before we play Hertha Berlin [on August 3] – that gives him his three weeks off.

“If he wants to come back earlier we will be very happy to see him.”
