Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly still keeping a close watch on Crystal Palace’s Eberechi Eze, with fresh interest in a potential move next summer, according to Football Insider.
It has been revealed that a £68 million release clause will be activated next summer for Eze, whose contract with Palace runs until June 2027.
Despite being linked with the 26-year-old attacking midfielder during the last transfer window, Spurs decided to pursue Burnley’s Wilson Odobert instead for £30 million including add-ons. However, Tottenham’s interest in Eze has not waned, and he remains a key target for the club.
Eze has made a decent start to the new season, scoring three goals and providing one assist in his first eight appearances across all competitions.
His standout performances have kept him on the radar of several top clubs, with Tottenham among those monitoring him as they look to strengthen their midfield options.
While a move for Eze in January seems improbable, Spurs are expected to keep tracking his development throughout the season, with the aim of a potential transfer next summer. The activation of the release clause could make a deal more attainable for Tottenham as they seek to add more creativity to their squad.
Spurs fans will no doubt be eager to see if Eze could join the club, offering additional attacking flair and depth to their midfield lineup.
