Manchester United to receive £15million if Crystal Palace sell Wilfried Zaha this summer due to sell-on clause... despite winger making just four senior appearances for the club
* Manchester United will receive £15million if Crystal Palace sell Wilfried Zaha
* United inserted sell-on clause in deal that saw Zaha return to Palace in 2015
* Zaha wants to leave for Champions League football but Palace want £80million
Manchester United will net up to £15million if Crystal Palace sell Wilfried Zaha this summer due a lucrative sell-on clause.
As Sportsmail exclusively revealed on Thursday, Zaha has informed Palace of his intention to leave Selhurst Park for a Champions League club this summer.
However the club want £80million before considering selling their prized asset ahead of next season.
Manchester United will receive £15million if Crystal Palace sell Wilfried Zaha this summer. Zaha has been heavily linked with a move but Palace will demand £80million for him. Zaha made four appearances for United, all of which came in the 2013-14 campaign
The huge price tag placed on Zaha's head is partly motivated by a clause in the deal that saw the forward return to Palace from Old Trafford in 2015 for a fee of £6million.
It is understood United are entitled to up to 20 percent of the profit incurred from Zaha's next move. If the 26-year-old moves for the full £80million, United would receive a cash injection of just under £15million.
The money would certainly help United pay for what looks likely to be a busy summer. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is hopeful of significantly strengthen his squad this summer, while the Old Trafford club are also facing the prospect of subsiding Alexis Sanchez's huge £500,000-per-week wages just to facilitate his exit either on loan or permanently.
