Tottenham have made fresh moves to sign Crystal Palace attacking midfielder Eberechi Eze as the clock ticks down on his €80 million release clause, which is set to expire on Friday August 15. Spurs are pushing hard, offering around €70 million to tempt Palace into a deal, pushed on by the long-term absence of James Maddison and losing Son Heung-min to MLS transfers.
Arsenal still in the picture but constrained
Arsenal remain keen on Eze, seeing him as the final piece to push their Premier League title bid over the line after a summer of big signings. However, they face financial limits and must offload players before committing to another major transfer.
Palace determined to keep their jewel
Crystal Palace head coach Oliver Glasner has confirmed Eze will feature in their upcoming Community Shield fixture, underlining the club’s desire to retain their star midfielder at least until after the clause expires. If a deal is to happen after that, it may come at a notably higher fee.
Eze’s creative prowess continues to draw attention across London, and with time running out he could become the headline signing of the summer.
