Arsenal is speeding up the effort to recruit Eberechi Eze as this player is increasingly looking to join the Gunners.
Mikel Arteta really wants to add more creativity and flexibility to the attack this summer, after the goal of winning the Premier League last season was ruined due to injuries of some important players.
Eberechi Eze will give Arteta the options in the wing corridor, in addition he can kick the central midfielder or the public household. Captain Martin Odegaard struggled to recover after ankle surgery in September last year and undergo a difficult season, but Arteta did not have many options to replace him.

Crystal Palace closed the price of Eberechi Eze for Arsenal. |
The Spanish coach does not seem to trust teen player Ethan Nwaneri at No. 10, although Max Dowman is progressing quickly, the 16 -year -old is difficult to play regularly next season. Fabio Vieira has returned after lending at Porto, but he is no longer in the plan of Arteta and Arsenal who are selling this midfielder.
Eze has attracted attention from clubs like MU and Tottenham, but is said to prefer to move to Arsenal. The negotiations took place between Arsenal and the representative of the 27 -year -old to determine the salary that Eze requested.
According to The Evening Standard, Palace did not consider selling their star at a price lower than 68 million pounds. They accepted Arsenal to pay in 3 phases, but wanted to receive £ 68 million. Meanwhile, Arsenal signed a contract with goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga from Chelsea, the Gunners accepted spending 5 million pounds for this deal.
