British media: Tottenham rekinds interest in Eze and will compete with Arsenal to sign him

According to GiveMeSport sources, Tottenham has rekindled interest in Crystal Palace's offensive core Eze, and the player himself is open to the transfer.

Due to Madison's serious knee injury and captain Son Heung-min's transfer to Los Angeles FC, Tottenham is seeking new offensive reinforcements, and Eze has become one of the target candidates.

Despite the transfer rumors throughout the summer window, the 26-year-old still started for Crystal Palace in Community Shield’s match against Liverpool last weekend. As early as the early stages of the transfer window, Eze had an affair with Tottenham, but the club chose to prioritize chasing Kudus and Morgan Gibbs White, which made Arsenal the most likely team to sign him.

Although Kudus has transferred from West Ham to Tottenham, Gibbs White's deal has been declared a failure. Even though Levi activated the £60 million termination clause in his contract, Nottingham Forest questioned the legitimacy of the deal, successfully convinced the player to renew the three-year contract after threatening to file a formal complaint.

The drawdown in Gibbs White, coupled with a torn cruciate ligament against Newcastle in preseason, will miss most of the 2025-26 season, prompting Tottenham to reconsider the England international. The Eze contract includes a termination fee of £60 million fixed + £8 million additional terms, but the clause will expire before the opening of the new Premier League season.

learned that Tottenham was preparing to make an offer of about £60 million, and had contacted Crystal Palace for details of the termination clause in case of a trigger. There is also news that Arsenal is still chasing Eze. Although Eze does not reject joining the Gunners, he is also interested in Tottenham's plans. Tottenham coach Frank admired Eze very much and pushed for the transfer, and sources confirmed that he had given the green light to the deal.

While operating Eze's transfer, Tottenham has not given up introducing Manchester City winger Savignho. The club hopes to sign two attackers before closing the window.
