Eberechi Eze is actively pushing for a move to Tottenham Hotspur and is targeting Champions League football as a key part of his decision.
Spurs have re-entered the race to sign the Crystal Palace midfielder, reigniting their rivalry with Arsenal, who have been the primary contender for Eze’s signature. A serious injury to Tottenham’s James Maddison has increased their urgency to strengthen the number 10 position, with Spurs now seriously working on a transfer deal for Eze.
Eze, 27 years old, has been impressive for Crystal Palace since moving from Queens Park Rangers in 2020. Last season, he scored 14 goals and provided 12 assists in 43 matches, playing a significant role in Crystal Palace’s FA Cup victory.
Although Arsenal remains Eze’s preferred destination, he is open to joining Tottenham due to their Champions League offer, which Palace no longer can provide after being demoted to the Conference League.
The transfer would involve negotiations with Crystal Palace, as Eze’s £68 million release clause has reportedly expired, meaning Palace can set their own valuation. Spurs are also exploring other signings concurrently, including talks for winger Savinho from Manchester City.
In summary, Eze’s desire to play Champions League football is motivating him towards a Tottenham move, with Spurs actively pursuing him following the injury blow to Maddison. While Arsenal remains interested, the competitive offer of European football from Tottenham gives them a strong chance to secure Eze’s transfer this summer.
