Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze has told his club that he is ready to find a new team in the summer transfer window, according to TBR. Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City are said to be interested in a deal for the 26-year-old England international, who can operate as an attacking midfielder or winger.
Journalist Graeme Bailey told TBR: “Much will depend on Palace’s demands around his release clause, very few are needed to be paid in one lump sum and I don’t believe that Palace will do that to Eze either.
“Tottenham love the player, we know that – but they are not alone – Manchester City like him a lot, I am told that Pep Guardiola is an admirer.
“City are looking at bolstering their attacking midfield ranks but Florian Wirtz is ahead of him in that regard, and I believe so are Lucas Paqueta, Charles De Ketelaere and Francisco Trincao but I would not dismiss it totally.
“Newcastle and Aston Villa also admire him, and if he does go – it will be a team playing in Europe.
“Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool are all fully aware of him and are fans of his talents, but I don’t believe he is a priority for them as it stands.
“Eze for his part feels the time is right to move and has expressed this to Palace.”
