Zaha wants a shot at the Champions League; whether that’s in England or abroad and might well get that crack at Tottenham or Arsenal.
)

His future is however not certain, and looks destined for life elsewhere. He has 187 appearances to his name, with 37 games for Real Madrid.
05. Adrien Rabiot (Juventus)
Tottenham, Arsenal, and Liverpool have all been strongly linked with the Frenchman, who had a resurgence this season.

01. Lionel Messi (PSG)
Messi looks almost certain to leave Paris Saint Germain for Saudi Arabia and a ludicrous contract this summer, that will make him the highest athlete after Cristiano Ronaldo is on the table from Al Hilal.

Note: Both Toni Kroos and Karim Benzema are expected to stay for at least another season at Real Madrid, with agreements, reportedly already reached.
