Eze, Arsenal and Tottenham
Digest more
Eze was previously on Arsenal's books as a youngster until he was released at the age of 13. The former QPR man enjoyed a superb end to last season at Palace, scoring their winner in the FA Cup final against Manchester City as the Eagles won their piece of major silverware.
Therefore, Crystal Palace have already started looking for replacements and as per David Ornstein, the Eagles are working on the deal to sign Leicester City star Bilal El Khannouss. Palace reportedly have seen their first bid worth £20m ($27m) get rejected for the 21-year-old as the Foxes are keen to hold onto the Moroccan midfielder.
Football Insider has learned Tottenham are ready to blow Arsenal away as a formal Eberechi Eze bid is set to be submitted.
Tottenham Hotspur have taken a big step in their race with Arsenal to sign Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze, according to reports - with the England star's personal terms being 'no issue' should the Europa League winners make an official approach to land his services ahead of the new season.
Pape Matar Sarr is once again set to play in the more advanced midfield role, with the deal for the 27-year-old unlikely to be done in time for the first game of the new season. That means just one change for the former Brentford manager, with Wilson Odobert coming in to replace Kevin Danso to allow Spurs to be a bit more attacking.
