Arsenal have reportedly raised their bid for Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha, but the Gunners are now competing with Bayern Munich for the winger’s signature.

Unai Emery’s side saw a bid of £40m rebuffed by Palace earlier this month.

Now, the Gunners are suggested to have stepped up their offer with a bid of £65million plus Reiss Nelson on loan.

Zaha, 26, is said to have made it clear to Palace that he wants to leave the club amid interest from boyhood club Arsenal.

Reiss Nelson spent the entirety of last season on loan at Hoffenheim

It’s a transfer saga that’s been running throughout the summer and the Gunners must get a move as 90min now claim Bayern are now considering a bid for the Ivory Coast international.

Arsenal had offered the likes of Carl Jenkinson, Mohamed Elneny and Calum Chambers in previous discussions with Palace but have now offered highly-rated youngster Nelson.

The youngster thrived last season on loan at Hoffenheim and had been expected to form part of Arsenal’s first team squad this term.
