Football Insider reports that Tottenham is prepared to pay Crystal Palace striker Eberechi Eze’s initial £60 million release clause plus additional add-ons.
According to the source, in addition to Spurs, Manchester United is also interested in the English midfield player and is prepared to trigger the player’s release clause.
Eze has made a name for himself as one of the top midfield players in the Premier League, and his strong play during the previous campaign put Crystal Palace in the top half.
Along with Michael Olise, he led the Eagles to victory in six of their final seven Premier League games of the season with eleven goals and four assists.
The release provision is acceptable in the eyes of both teams, and they are prepared to exercise it.
The 25-year-old was an important member of the Eagles team, and his strong play has won him a spot in the England Euro squad.
It may be a hectic summer in north London as Ange Postecoglou is keen to reorganise his team after a dismal second half of the season.
In the final stages of the Premier League season, Tottenham was not able to secure a spot in the top four, and their poor performance allowed Aston Villa to secure a Champions League ticket for the next season.
The manager of Tottenham is expected to be involved in transfers.
Postecoglou is trying to bolster his team in an attempt to build on his otherwise fantastic first season at Spurs. The club will support him when he demonstrates his ability to raise players’ levels and bring out the best in them.
Spurs will be hoping that Eze teams up with James Maddison, another English offensive midfielder the club bought in the summer, to form a formidable tandem.
