Tottenham Hotspur remains firm in their pursuit of Crystal Palace’s standout attacking midfielder Eberechi Eze.
Eze, who has also attracted significant interest from Liverpool, might become a point of competition for Spurs.
Latest update from Football Insider confirms that both clubs have expressed serious intent to sign the England international’s services.
The report claims that Spurs have shown the most concrete interest in the play alongside Liverpool and are readying a formal move to make once he returns from his summer break.
Eze has emerged as one of the Premier League’s most sought-after talents, drawing attention from multiple clubs.
In November last year, the 25-year-old extended his contract with Crystal Palace until 2027, demonstrating his commitment to the club.
Despite this long-term contract, Tottenham are eager to incorporate Eze’s creativity and flair into their midfield, viewing him as a perfect fit for Ange Postecoglou’s attacking approach.
Eze’s versatility, allowing him to excel both as an attacking midfielder and on the left wing, makes him an invaluable asset for any team looking to enhance their offensive capabilities.
Last season, Eze enjoyed a remarkable campaign despite some injury setbacks. He solidified his status as Crystal Palace’s fourth-highest goalscorer in Premier League history.
Eze achieved a personal record last season with 11 goals and six assists in 31 matches across all competitions.
His exceptional form has undoubtedly caught the attention of top clubs, and Tottenham are optimistic about bringing the English winger to their squad as they strive to build a competitive team for the upcoming season.
Reports suggest that Spurs are prepared to activate Eze’s release clause of £60 million to secure his move to North London.
