In a developing transfer saga, Arsenal have joined Tottenham Hotspur in the race to sign Crystal Palace’s dynamic attacking midfielder, Eberechi Eze, according to transfer expert Ben Jacobs. The 26-year-old England international has emerged as a prime target for both North London clubs, with his £68m release clause making him an attractive option in the summer transfer window.
Eze’s versatility and flair have made him a standout performer for Crystal Palace, where he has showcased his ability to play as a left-winger, attacking midfielder, or in a more central role.

His creativity, dribbling, and eye for goal have caught the attention of Arsenal, who are reportedly looking to bolster their options on the left flank. Tottenham, meanwhile, have also identified Eze as a potential addition to their attacking unit under Thomas Frank.
The £68m release clause in Eze’s Palace contract provides clarity for both clubs, though it remains to be seen whether Arsenal or Spurs will trigger it. For Arsenal, Eze could provide competition and depth alongside players like Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard, while his ability to operate in multiple attacking roles aligns with Mikel Arteta’s system. Tottenham, on the other hand, may see Eze as a key piece to complement their high-pressing, attacking style.
