Manchester United enter the race to sign Arsenal and Tottenham target Eze
Manchester United have entered the race with Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur to sign Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze next year, journalist says Samuel Luckhurst.
The 26-year-old enjoyed a stellar campaign last season, scoring 11 goals and registering four assists in 27 Premier League Appearances. After that, he was selected to play for England at the European Championships and helped his country reach the final of this competition.
After impressing last season, Eze attracted a lot of attention from a number of top English clubs this summer, including Tottenham. However, no club ultimately opted to formalise their interest, so the deal did not materialise and he remained at Selhurst Park.
He It has been recently reported that although Spurs did not make a move for him this summer, they remain interested in signing him and could do so in 2025. Furthermore, Arsenal are also interested in him and plan to step up their efforts to secure his signature next year.
Now, in Manchester Evening News, Luck has reported that Manchester United are considering signing a new winger next summer and have identified Eze as a serious option. The Englishman has a £68m release clause in his current contract and the clause can be activated next summer.
Battle
Man Utd already have four wingers at the moment, but Marcus Rashford He has struggled to reach his best level in recent years, while Antony has failed to blossom in his career after joining the club from Ajax Amsterdam.
Therefore, reinforcing the forward position would be the right decision next year and Eze could be an excellent acquisition if they buy him, having already proven his worth in the Premier League in recent times.
The Crystal Palace star is a versatile player, as he is comfortable playing in both the left wing position and attacking midfield role. He is technically sound, can dribble past opposing defenders in tight areas, is excellent at linking up play, is efficient at set pieces and also has an eye for scoring goals from distance.
Eze would be a huge coup for Arsenal, Manchester United or Tottenham if any of those clubs sign him. But it will be interesting to see where the 26-year-old ends up if he leaves Selhurst Park next year.
