Arsenal will 'never' sign Wilfried Zaha says Mariner
Arsenal boss Unai Emery is determined to sign Zaha from Crystal Palace this summer, viewing the Ivory Coast international as a big upgrade on Henrikh Mkhitaryan.
The Gunners have already failed with one offer, with Palace snubbing their £40million bid at the end of last month.
Arsenal are keen to keep pursuing Zaha, though, as they seek a return to the Premier League top four next season.
And The Sun say the north London giants are planning to offer Palace three players as part of any deal.

But their cause was earlier this month helped by Zaha’s brother, who confirmed his sibling was eager to join Arsenal.
Judicael Zaha said: “Wilfried will always hold Crystal Palace and their fans in the highest regard and all the support they have given means the world to him.
“It is my brother’s dream, though, to play for Arsenal.
“Given all that Wilfried has given to Crystal Palace to help them remain a Premier League club, I hope Palace will be able to see their way to agreeing a deal with Arsenal that allows Wilfried to realise his dream of playing European football for the club he has supported since childhood.”
