Manchester United will confirm the £15million signing of Wilfried Zaha from Crystal Palace in the next 48 hours.
Palace have successfully persuaded United to send the winger back to Selhurst Park on loan for the rest of the season so he can help their bid to win promotion from the Championship.
As Standard Sport reported earlier this month, United will only pay a portion of the fee up front, which is believed to be around £10m, with the rest made up of add-ons depending on appearances and silverware Zaha (above) wins at Old Trafford.
It is still a remarkable deal for the club as Zaha progressed through their youth ranks and only made his debut in 2010. He has since emerged as one of the best talents outside of the Premier League.
