Arsenal have agreed personal terms with Crystal Palace attacking midfielder Eberechi Eze, and the England international is keen on the move, according to Team News and Ticks on Patreon.
Team News and Ticks – a Gunners account and insider – famous for leaking team news on the internet and followed by the likes of Dharmesh Sheth, David Ornstein, Fabrizio Romano and Gary Jacobs on X (formerly Twitter), have been a trusted source concerning all things Arsenal for a while, and they have claimed today that the North Londoners’ move for the 26-year-old could be a contingency plan.
The Gunners want a left winger and have been linked with a couple of names already, and sporting director Andrea Berta loves to speak with more than one target in a position before making a final decision.
Crystal Palace are open to selling Eze this summer but they want a deal structured in three £20 million instalments, plus £8m in add-ons for his £68m release clause to be activated.
The Englishman ended 2024-25 with 14 goals and 11 assists in 43 appearances after notching 11 goals and six assists in 31 games in 2023-24.
He started his career as a schoolboy in Hale End academy before moving to Fulham, Reading and Millwall, signing his first professional deal with Queens Park Rangers in 2016 before moving to Palace in August 2020.
Eze has been an attacking force to be reckoned with in the Premier League over the last three seasons, and Arsenal could do with such a player in the final third.
The England international, who can also play as a number 9, is an excellent and brilliant dribbler, with his crossing, taking set-pieces and playing key passes very exceptional.
