Tottenham are front-runners for the signature of Crystal Palace attacking midfielder Eberechi Eze.
Ange Postecoglou wants to add more firepower to his squad ahead of next season. After making a decent start to life in North London, the Australian manager wants to take Tottenham to the next level and is keen on making the necessary changes to make it happen.
Postecoglou is a big admirer of Crystal Palace mainstay Eberechi Eze and according to a report from GIVEMESPORT, Tottenham are a leading club in the race for the English international’s signature. Eze has had an exceptional rise since joining the Eagles in 2020 and multiple top clubs from across Europe are keen on signing him.
Last season, he was involved in 31 games across competitions and ended up contributing towards 17 goals (11 goals, 6 assists). While the majority of his appearance came as a number ten, he can feature on the flanks as well.
Oliver Glasner considers him to be an integral part of his plans moving ahead and people at the club remain hopeful that none of the interested clubs will look to trigger the £60 million release clause in his contract at Selhurst Park.
Tottenham’s interest in him is quite understandable as they look to add more quality in attack. Not only can Eze compete with James Maddison for a place in the starting XI, but he will also add depth on the flanks. The 26-year-old is exactly the kind of player the Australian manager needs.
It will be interesting to see if they are willing to pay a premium for the England international this summer. Convincing the player to join them should not be difficult. It would be a step up in his career and he is likely to be attracted to the idea of playing for Tottenham.
