Crystal Palace maverick Eberechi Eze is a player who has been linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspur for ages now.

Tottenham have a concrete interest in signing Eze𓄧, with Manchester United and Napoli also being admirers of the Englishman.

Additionally, 🐼Tottenham have held internal talks about signing Ezeও, who would certainly help bolster their attack instantly.

ꦕThe good news for Spurs and his suitors is that there is a release clause worth £68 million in the Palace talisman’s contract, as reported by the .

Surprisingly, no club decided to snap Eberechi Eze𒊎 up in the summer, who seemed destined for a move away from Selhurst Park after having impressed as an impact substitute during Euro 2024.

🔜Since then, the former Queens Park Rangers has knuckled down and helped Crystal Palace sit comfortably in 12th place in the Premier League table after they were initially battling relegation.

ꦡBut in the summer, it seems like the signing of Eze will be high on Tottenham’s to-do list.

The 26-year-old has all the traits to become a star under Ange Postecoglou💃 — being technically gifted, an X-factor in the final third and tactically flexible.

Eberechi Eze deal “difficult” for Tottenham due to complicated release clause

꧙But Fabrizio Romano has revealed that the signing of Eze is not so easy to complete, citing his complicated release clause as the barrier standing in Tottenham’s path.

🐠Romano told : “He’s on Spurs’ list since 2023, he’s always been highly rated at the club.”

☂“But the release clause is very expensive and the payment for the clause is not allowed in three, four years as usually happens, so that’s what makes the deal difficult and there are more clubs also keen.”

The Lilywhites’ priority seems to freshening up their forward line, with Tottenham eyeing striker Samu Omorodion🐷 as well — making the perceived difficulty of Eze’s deal frustrating for them.

ꦓTottenham were interested in Eze’s signature in January▨ as well — which shows how longstanding their admiration is for the attacking midfielder.

Big blow for Ange Postecoglou who requested Eberechi Eze signing

🍷The best advice for the English giants would be to keep pursuing a deal for the versatile forward.

🐲Players like Eze are not made available too often, keeping in mind that he is also Premier League-proven.

Ange Postecoglou’s top target is Eze🎀 and the latest news surrounding his future will be a blow for him.

ꦿTottenham will likely be assessing the payment structure in the deal to make it a reality.

💖But it seems easier said than done and in fairness, any top club like Spurs should have alternatives in place ahead of the summer transfer window.
