BEVERLY HILLS, June 07, (THEWILL) – Wilfred Zaha has refuted claims that he was involved with the daughter of former manager of Manchester United, David Moyes, saying he never met her.
THEWILL recalls that Zaha did not get enough playing time during his short stay at Manchester United under David Moyes amid rumours he was sleeping with Lauren. He was subsequently loaned to Cardiff City in the 2013-2014 season.
The Ivorian forward told ex-teammate, Rio Ferdinard, on The Locker Room that he didn’t receive any support from United to dispel the rumours.
“No one at the club at all told me anything, I didn’t know what to do whatsoever.
“I remember tweeting something about it saying ‘silly rumours’ because it was getting too much so I had to say something myself and then I remember the club media messaging me saying ‘you shouldn’t have done that, you shouldn’t have done this’ and I’m thinking you haven’t helped me.

“I’m here by myself, struggling because people are telling me I’ve slept with the manager’s daughter and that’s why you’re not playing me.”
Zaha, who now plays for Crystal Palace, said he heard that a meeting would be called so he and Moyes could talk things over but that never happened.
“The funny thing is, it’s carried on for so long I felt like, is the manager not going to come and have a word with me over this?
“That’s how I felt and I’m thinking this is ridiculous man. Up to this day I still get people that think that’s true and I’ve never even met his daughter.”
