Wilfred Zaha Set to Join Charlotte FC on Loan from Galatasaray
Wilfred Zaha is poised to make a high-profile move to Major League Soccer, with the Crystal Palace legend verbally agreeing to join Charlotte FC. The deal, which has been confirmed with a “here we go” status, will see the winger move to the MLS side on loan from Galatasaray until June 2026.
Zaha, 31, who joined Galatasaray from Crystal Palace in the summer, will now make the switch to MLS, where he will become a marquee signing for Charlotte FC. The Ivorian forward is expected to travel within the next 24-48 hours to undergo medical tests and sign his contract, which will officially seal his move to the U.S.
The signing represents a major coup for Charlotte FC, who are looking to strengthen their squad and make a push for greater success in MLS. Zaha’s flair, experience, and leadership on the field will be valuable assets for the team as they aim to compete at a higher level.
Zaha has long been regarded as one of the Premier League’s most talented wingers, and his move to MLS marks a new chapter in his career. Fans in Charlotte and across the U.S. are eagerly awaiting his arrival, with the versatile attacker expected to be a game-changer for the club.
