Eze is one of the best attacking midfielders in the Premier League and has been the subject of intense rumours in recent weeks, with north London rivals Arsenal and Tottenham both interested in securing the Palace star’s services.

Eze has agreed with Tottenham on the personal something that Fabrizio Romano confirmed on social media: Eze – whom Palace manager Oliver Glasner in The Independent in September 2024 called “dangerous”, “absolute top” and “an incredible goalscorer” – has already “informed” the Eagles “of his desire to join Tottenham” and wants to complete the transfer “as soon as possible”.
