Tottenham Hotspur are making a strong push to land Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze, with growing confidence that an agreement could soon be reached.

Eze’s £68m release clause recently expired, and Spurs are aiming to strike a deal closer to £60m instead. The development leaves Palace in a dilemma, as they weigh up whether to include their midfield talisman in tomorrow’s clash against Chelsea.

The 26-year-old has been one of Palace’s standout performers, and his potential move would mark a huge statement signing for Ange Postecoglou’s side.
