Arsenal ready to trigger the release clause of £68m attacker who Declan Rice called a ‘wizard’
Having secured second place in the Premier League, Arsenal are now putting all of their attention towards this summer’s transfer window.
Mikel Arteta and Declan Rice mentioned how important the upcoming transfer window will be for Arsenal in t♔he aftermath of their win against Newcastle 🅰United on Sunday.
Arsenal have be൩en somewhat dormant ever since the window in which they signed Rice, Kai Havertz and Jurrien Timber.
However, ✱this summer will be different and Andrea Berta has been recruited to ensure that Arsenal spend more than £ඣ100m successfully.
And although improvements are needed in most areas of Arsenal’s squad, it’s their attack that needs most attentio🐷n immedi𝔍ately.
Arsenal considering a bid for Eberechi Eze
That being said, are now reporting that Arsenal are seriously considering meeting the release clause of Crystal Palace’s Eberechi Eze.
Arsenal have been linked with Eze for quite a while now, a player who seems destined to play for an elite club,ꦍ even if he is achieving great things with Palace.

Rice called Eze a ‘wizard’ in the past, a p🔯lay🔴er he’s seemingly become close with whilst away on England duty.
And now Arsenal are tempted to step up their interest in Eze according to the report, even if they could face stiff competition ෴f🥀rom some of their Premier League rivals.
First and foremost, Manchester City want Eze — someone who mig🎐ht even come in to help replace 𓂃Kevin De Bruyne.
City’s interest could be an issue for Arsenal should they pursue a move, but perhaps Mikel Arteta’s side won’t be so concerned about Tottenham’s own p𝓀ursuit of Eze.
Eze is said to have a £68m release clause according to the i𝔉nformation and Arsenal see the England international as an option for their le🔥ft wing — a position Berta wants to improve.
Mikel Arteta has a plan for Eberechi Eze at Arsenal
Of course, it is hard to argue again♊st the merits of Arsenal signing such a talented player — Eze has b𓃲een superb for some time at Selhurst Park.
However, in terms of Eze playing o🌳n the wing for Arsenal, ther꧂e might be some concerns over the pace Arteta’s team would lose as a result.

Gabriel Martinelli is hailed for his speed at left-wing — A✱rsenal’s fastest𒐪 player by a lot of accounts.
And swapping his speed for Eze’s🎐 mercurial talents would be a significant change for the Gunners.
In truth, Eze would probably be better suited playing in a central role, perhaps th﷽e one occupied by Martin Odegaard.
Signing someone of Eze’s quality would always be a good idea, but when considering his skill-set, perhaps that money could be better spent and Arsenal could actually pursue Nico Williams.
