Tottenham fear Arsenal will beat them to the punch in Eberechi Eze signing

Tottenham Hotspur has considered a transfer for Eberechi Eze for over a year and according to football transfersThere was a “gentleman's agreement” between the two parties to partner up this year subject to Spurs meeting Crystal Palace's asking price of £68m.

However, a move to North London did not materialise for the Englishman. It has now emerged, according to the report, that he has changed his mind and is considering joining a top four side. Arsenal and Manchester City It is particularly said that it is in the image.

Eze has decided to stay at Selhurst Park for another season following the departure of Michael Olise, but the 26-year-old could look for better opportunities next year and a number of teams, including Spurs, are expected to be in the running. However, Tottenham are “afraid” Arsenal will “snatch” him from under their noses.

Football Transfers have said that Eze's profile is one that 'Arteta likes' and if the Gunners boss does indeed decide to speak to the versatile attacker personally, a move to the Emirates Stadium could very quickly become the most promising option for him.

Arsenal, the best destination for Eze

While it's true that Ange Postecoglou is a great coach to work with, especially for a player looking to improve, Spurs don't seem to have the same ambition that the Australian has shown.

At Arsenal, however, the story is different. Mikel Arteta and the club are working together to try to ensure the Premier Leaguewhile a Champions League Currently, available space is at a premium in North London.

From Eze's perspective, it would not be a significant upgrade if he joined a team like Tottenham, who have endured more than a decade without trophies and are also rare entrants into the UCL.

If he were to join Arsenal, he would be part of a talented young group of ambitious players and his multi-dimensional profile would be an asset to Mikel Arteta as Eze can be used interchangeably with players like Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard in various positions.

It will be interesting to see where exactly he ends up next year. Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United He could also declare interest in him, but at the moment it is difficult to look beyond Arsenal as the best possible destination for Eze.
