According to Sacha TavolieriThe 23-year-old could be available in January for a fee of around 10 to 12 million euros.​
Crystal Palace and Everton hope to sign him. It remains to be seen if they can close the deal.
Palace could use Zakaria El Ouahdi
Crystal Palace need a quality back-up option for Daniel Munoz and Zakaria could be an excellent signing for them. They have already approached to sign the player and it remains to be seen if they can reach an agreement with his club.
The asking price is reasonable and Crystal Palace certainly has the resources to complete the deal.
They are currently competing in European football and will want to compete regularly at a high level. They need a deeper squad with more quality.
The 23-year-old defender could be a very useful asset for them.

Everton are also interested in Zakaria
Meanwhile, Everton also have their sights set on the defender. They need a long-term replacement for Seamus Coleman. The 23-year-old seems the ideal fit and he could replace the Everton icon.
The opportunity to move to the Premier League will be quite exciting for Zakaria. It would be a big step forward in his career and he could test himself at a high level. Genk are unlikely to stand in his way and the asking price is quite nominal for a player of his quality. Crystal Palace and Everton have the resources to pay him and it will be interesting to see what they decide.
The defender will certainly hope to take a big step next month.
The report claims the Moroccan international is open to a move to the Premier League and is waiting to see if the clubs can now reach an agreement.
