WILFRIED ZAHA will reject Tottenham Hotspur as he looks set to sign a new five-year deal at Crystal Palace worth £110,000-a-week.
The Ivory Coast international has told the Eagles he is ready to commit his future to the club after ensuring the club's safety in the Premier League.
Spurs have been long-term admirers of the 24-year-old and failed in attempt to lure him to White Hart Lane last summer, but Zaha will snub any move to Maurico Pochettino's men as we revealed last month.
The winger is wary of leaving the London side to avoid a repeat of when he moved to Manchester United, where his career stalled over a lack of playing time, and he was shipped out to Cardiff City on loan.
Palace chairman Steve Parish is willing to almost double his current salary of £60,000-a-week to make him one of the highest paid players along with Christian Benteke at the club.

Negotiations have already begun to extend his stay, where Parish is keen on adding a sell-on fee in the contract should Zaha move on again in the future.
It's been a sensational individual season for the former Red Devil, not only has enjoyed his best campaign - banging in seven goals and providing nine assists, but he was also awarded Palace's player of the season.
He scored in the 4-0 rout over Hull City on the weekend to lift them up to 13th spot, which ensured they will be staying in the top flight for at least another year.
