Football Insider has learned Tottenham are ready to blow Arsenal away as a formal Eberechi Eze bid is set to be submitted.

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.

Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur may have to wait until the end of the transfer window to do a deal for Crystal Palace’s Eberechi Eze as the Eagles are reportedly intent on keeping their star forward for this month’s key Conference League qualifiers.

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.

The Gunners have told Eberechi Eze's camp exactly what needs to happen before they'll make a move for the Crystal Palace star.

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.

Tottenam ‘are ahead’ of Arsenal for Eberechi Eze but the Gunners are ‘waiting on their first choice target to make a decision before submitting a bid’.

Arne Slot has addressed Liverpool’s rivalry at right-back between Conor Bradley - currently injured, but previously viewed by many as the long-term successor to the departed Trent Alexander-Arnold - and Jeremie Frimpong, who arrived this summer from Bayer Leverkusen alongside playmaker Florian Wirtz.
