Crystal Palace manager Frank de Boer says Eagles winger Wilfried Zaha reminds him of Neymar.
The Dutchman has been effusive in his praise of the rapid 24–year-old since his own summer arrival at Selhurst Park.
And, speaking after the club rounded off the Premier League’s Asia Trophy with a 2-0 victory over West Brom, De Boer was initially reluctant to liken Zaha to others, pointing out he is his own player.
But when pressed, he compared the former Manchester United man to Barcelona’s brilliant Brazilian, who is the subject of a £196m world record bid from Paris Saint-Germain.
