According to the London Evening Standard, Tottenham Hotspur and Crystal Palace have started negotiations to introduce midfielder Eze, but they will face competition from North London rival Arsenal.

Due to Madison's serious injury, he will miss most of the new season, and Kulusevsky will also be absent for a long time. Tottenham is eager to increase creativity for the team, and Eze has become their target.

Eze's termination amount is ÂŖ68 million, and the clause will expire this Friday. Last season, he scored 14 goals for Crystal Palace, including the winning goal against Manchester City in the FA Cup final. Arsenal is also interested in Eze, but he has had an unpleasant experience with the Gunners because he was abandoned by Arsenal's youth training camp at the age of 13.

Arsenal needs to sell some players before signing. Loconga, Fabio Vieira, Carl Hein, Rice Nelson and others are all looking for their next home, and Trosad and Zinchenko may also leave the team. If Trosad leaves the team, Eze may become a replacement. He can not only play on the left, but also compete in the No. 8 position. Arsenal and other clubs are aware of the termination clause in Eze's contract, but the Gunners are said to want to sign the midfielder for a fee below the termination amount.
