The England international, who first broke onto the scene at Palace as a youngster, has seen his career go backwards since he made the big move to United at the start of last season.
Zaha has since had a loan spell at Cardiff City and now back at Selhurst Park, but manager Alan Pardew believes he should consider moving elsewhere as it is so difficult to make it at a top four club.
Whilst admitting that the 22-year-old attacker is a talented player, Pardew strongly hinted that he may be lacking in the other attributes needed to truly make it at a big team.
Pardew also suggested that he may not take up the option to sign Zaha permanently, refusing to give too much away regarding the on-loan United man’s future.
“He is a player who needs to get his career on the move again,” said the former Newcastle United boss.
“He has made an impact and needs to build on that. He’s a talent and he needs to nail down a permanent position quickly, whether that is here or at another club.
“You need a lot of other attributes to make it as a top player. It is very difficult for young players to make it at a top-four club.”
