Arsenal are reportedly setting their sights on Crystal Palace's electrifying playmaker Eberechi Eze, as Mikel Arteta seeks to add more creativity to his squad ahead of the 2024/25 campaign.
The Gunners' interest in the 25-year-old England international has intensified following his standout performances for the Eagles last season, where he netted 11 goals and provided four assists across all competitions.
Why Eze Fits Arteta's Vision
Eze's versatility, technical brilliance and ability to unlock defences make him an ideal candidate for Arteta's system. Capable of operating as an attacking midfielder or on either flank, the former QPR star could provide the creative spark Arsenal sometimes lacked last term.
Palace's Valuation and Potential Hurdles
Crystal Palace are understood to value their prized asset at around £60 million, a figure that might test Arsenal's resolve given their need to strengthen multiple positions. The North London club will also face competition from other top Premier League sides monitoring Eze's situation.
With Eze's current contract running until 2027, Palace are under no immediate pressure to sell, potentially making this one of the summer's most intriguing transfer sagas.
