Newcastle looking to bring in Manchester United winger Zaha on a six-month loan

Newcastle have opened talks to take Manchester United winger Wilfried Zaha on loan in January.

The England player’s representatives met officials last week to discuss the possibility of a temporary six-month deal, with United manager David Moyes open to the idea of Zaha getting regular games elsewhere in the Premier League.

Zaha, 20, was Sir Alex Ferguson’s last United signing before he retired but has had only one Capital One Cup outing under Moyes.

Deal: Alan Pardew is interested in bringing Zaha in for a six-month spell

The former Crystal Palace winger made his England debut against Sweden last year but his lack of club games has seen him return to the Under-21 squad with a World Cup place looking a remote possibility.

Zaha has ruled out a return to Palace.
