Eberechi Eze

Eberechi Eze cried for a week when Arsenal released him in 2011. Now, after hijacking Spurs’ move, the Gunners are bringing him back to north London.

Tottenham were confident of signing Eberechi Eze, but Arsenal struck at the right moment to hijack the deal. Here’s how the transfer battle was really won.

Arsenal are seemingly out of the race to sign Eberechi Eze, with only Tottenham Hotspur still pursuing the Crystal Palace man at this stage.

Tottenham Hotspur are holding direct talks with Crystal Palace today over the potential transfer of Eberechi Eze, with Arsenal’s chances of a deal appearing to fade.

Arsenal’s interest in Eberechi Eze remains despite Tottenham Hotspur’s pursuit, but the Gunners can’t make a move until after they sell, according to a report.

Tottenham Hotspur have rejoined the race for Eberechi Eze in the wake of James Maddison’s injury, with Arsenal remaining interested in the Crystal Palace player.

Mikel Arteta has confirmed that Arsenal are still actively looking at options for further potential incomings in the final weeks of the transfer window, adding that outgoings are needed too.

Arsenal are monitoring Ademola Lookman but focus remains on other targets, with agent activity driving speculation as his Inter Milan move stalls.

Arsenal let Eberechi Eze’s £68m release clause expire, choosing to wait for a potential lower fee while considering outgoings before making an official move.

Eberechi Eze’s Crystal Palace release clause expires sooner than previously thought, with the deadline on Friday, and Arsenal have no plans to activate it.

Arsenal would prefer to sell a forward before making a formal move for Eberechi Eze of Crystal Palace, according to a report.

In early talks over Eberechi Eze, Crystal Palace have informed Arsenal that they want a fee of up to £67.5m with £35m upfront, according to reports.

Arsenal’s pursuit of Eberechi Eze isn’t over despite Ethan Nwaneri’s new contract, and Crystal Palace are lining up a replacement in case Eze leaves.

Arsenal remain in contact with Eberechi Eze’s camp over a potential summer move, amid mixed reports over whether the club have started initial talks with Crystal Palace.

Arsenal reportedly plan to step up their interest in Eberechi Eze now that the Viktor Gyokeres transfer is all but complete, though they’d prefer to sell before buying.

Arsenal’s interest in Eberechi Eze and Xavi Simons may be fading a little following Ethan Nwaneri’s decision to sign a new contract, according to a report.

With Arsenal making significant investment in the summer market, the question now is whether they’ll have squad space to register everyone.

Arsenal are setting their sights on Eberechi Eze as one more summer signing after Viktor Gyokeres, Noni Madueke, and Cristhian Mosquera, according to a report.

Arsenal are still hoping to avoid paying Eberechi Eze’s release clause to sign the Crystal Palace midfielder this summer, according to a report.

Arsenal’s bid for Chelsea’s Noni Madueke doesn’t affect their pursuit of Eberechi Eze, with the Gunners planning to make contact with Crystal Palace over a move.
