Crystal Palace star Wilfried Zaha has been ruled out for a month with a knee injury, according to reports.

Zaha featured in the Eagles’ opening day 3-0 defeat to Huddersfield on Saturday.

But the former Manchester United winger left Selhurst Park in a leg brace, signalling fears of a serious injury.

And he is now expected to miss Palace’s games against Liverpool, Ipswich, Swansea and Burnley.

Zaha scored seven and assisted nine goals as Palace avoided relegation last season.

His injury will come as a major blow to Eagles manager Frank de Boer, who got off to the worse possible start with Palace.

Andros Townsend is likely to replace Zaha when Palace travel to Anfield this weekend.
