Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha has signed a five-year contract extension with the Premier League club.

The Ivory Coast international has made 258 appearances over two spells with the Eagles, scoring 34 goals.

Zaha, 24, told the club website: “Palace is in my heart and I don’t think the story is over.”

He left Palace to join Manchester United in 2013 for an initial £10m and rejoined them in 2015 after two loan spells back in south London.

Eagles chairman Steve Parish added: “Wilf has been with the club since he was eight years old and in the first team from the day I arrived. He is our talisman and someone that week in week out gives everything.”
