Transfer rumors continue to dominate the world of football as the Manchester United squad is in the news once again. The club appears close to inking Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha, one of the premiere league's most promising young players in English football.  

However, Crystal Palace appears to be benefitting from the deal as well, as the potential perks from the Zaha move would be quite enticing. 

The rising star will return to the team for a bid at advancing in the division to the Premier League and may even receive further loans to contribute to its cause. 

Hence, Crystal Palace will get to keep the services of Zaha for the remainder of the season.

On the Manchester United side of the transaction, the agreement seemingly indicates that Nani will stick around for the summer of 2013. However, that assumption could be incorrect if the club either makes the decision to ink another winger this month or believes that Javier Hernandez, Danny Welback or Shinji Kagawa can get the job done behind Ashley Young and Antonio Valencia.

The move will most definitely discourage many fans of the Arsenal squad, as the Gunners also appeared to be pursuing Zaha. 

Zaha aside, Manchester United has also been looking at acquiring Rayo Vallecano striker Leo Baptistao. The Red Devil's are said to have an immense interest in the 20-year-old offensive force. 

According to Rant Sports, there are a slew of other teams interested in obtaining Baptistao. Potential suitors for him include Atletico Madrid, Liverpool, QPR, Leeds and Brighton, amongst others.

Although Baptistao is widely considered to be Vallecano's most valuable scorer, the youngster will still have a lot more growth to make before seeing any significant minutes on the field.  Nonetheless, the team would benefit in the future if they end up signing the player to a long-term deal.
