W. Zaha hunted by English giants: I am ready to play in the Premier League © EuroFootball.com

"Crystal Palace" forward Wilfried Zaha claims that he is ready to play in the English Premier League and would like to do so as early as January.

The 20-year-old footballer has been linked with clubs such as Manchester United, Arsenal, and Tottenham for some time.

"I am no longer a teenager, I am ready to put on the shirt of a Premier League team," Zaha told The Mail on Sunday. "I have already played more than 100 games at my current club, so I want to continue my career at a higher level."

"Some of my friends playing in the Premier League joke and ask more and more why I haven't played there yet, and I just reply that the time will come," the player said.

One of the most promising English players also added: "In fact, if there is an opportunity, I will leave Crystal Palace already in January."
