Given their Financial Fair Play problems, Barcelona are set to dive into the free-transfer market once again when the summer window is open for business later this year.

The Blaugrana have been linked with several potential free agents already such as N’Golo Kante, Jorginho, Inigo Martinez, and Youssoufa Moukoko, among several others.

Now, SPORT is reporting that Barcelona also have their eyes on Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha as a possible transfer target for the summer window.

Zaha has been at Crystal Palace since returning from his ill-fated stint at Manchester United. During his time at Selhurst Park, the 30-year-old attacker has established himself as a reliable winger with good productivity in front of goal.

The Ivory Coast international had netted 17 times last season across all competitions and has managed to find the back of the net on six occasions in 15 matches this term, while registering two assists as well.

As per reports in England, as relayed by SPORT, Zaha has decided not to renew his contract with Crystal Palace, which expires at the end of the 2022/23 season. It has opened up the possibility of him leaving as a free agent in the summer, with Barcelona said to be keen.

The Catalan giants will bid goodbye to Memphis Depay either this month or in the summer. Furthermore, there have been reports that the club might look to cash in on Raphinha as well following his slow start to life at Camp Nou.

It could open up space for a new forward to arrive and Zaha has thus emerged as a possible target for Barcelona. This is not the first time that the Ivorian has been linked with the Blaugrana.

With the player in the final six months of his contract, he is now free to negotiate with the club of his choosing. Having signed the likes of Franck Kessie and Andreas Christensen for free last year, it will be interesting to see of Barcelona repeat the trick with Zaha.
