Eberechi Eze has attracted interest from Arsenal and Tottenham this summer and the Crystal Palace star appears to be closing in on a move to Spurs, despite his release clause expiring

Eberechi Eze will reportedly be left out of Crystal Palace’s squad for their game against Chelsea on Sunday as he looks to secure a move to Tottenham Hotspur. Both north London clubs have shown an interest in the 27-year-old but it would appear Spurs have got one over their rivals with the player said to be keen on the move.

Summer signings Mohammed Kudus and Joao Palhinha both starred for Tottenham as they fell agonisingly short of lifting their second trophy in the space of four months, but Frank added post-match that he needs reinforcements in the closing weeks of the window.

Football Insider has learned Tottenham are ready to blow Arsenal away as a formal Eberechi Eze bid is set to be submitted.

TBR Football can exclusively reveal that Arsenal’s move for Eberechi Eze is currently considered to be off the table, with Tottenham Hotspur set to firm up their interest. On Tuesday, TBR Football revealed that Tottenham had made contact with Eze’s camp, and there is an expectation that Spurs could now land him.

Tottenham Hotspur are considering battling Arsenal in the race to sign Crystal Palace forward Eberechi Eze, a source has told ESPN.

Eberechi Eze could make Arsenal title winners, but would be afforded more game time at rivals Tottenham, admits ex-Gunner Lee Dixon.

Pape Matar Sarr is once again set to play in the more advanced midfield role, with the deal for the 27-year-old unlikely to be done in time for the first game of the new season. That means just one change for the former Brentford manager, with Wilson Odobert coming in to replace Kevin Danso to allow Spurs to be a bit more attacking.
