The race to win Eberechi Eze when outside Arsenal, Liverpool also participated in the race to win the signature of the Crystal Palace side.
The British player emerged as one of the most interested names in the summer of 2025 after an incredible season for Crystal Palace. He scored 14 goals and had 11 assists in 43 appearances, including the decisive goal in the FA Cup final with Man City, thereby bringing the first big title to the club.
Both MU and Tottenham are interested in this offensive player, but withdrew from the race to focus on other goals, namely Maheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo and Mohammed Kudus. That paved the way for Arsenal to sign a contract with Eze.

Eberechi Eze made a decision about moving to Arsenal. |
However, according to Independent, there are two obstacles that hinder Arsenal in this deal. First, Palace confirmed that he did not sell his star at a lower fee than the £ 68 million contract release, the second, Liverpool, joined the race to win the British player.
The Red Brigade spent nearly 200 million pounds this summer, more than half of them for the attacking midfielder Florian Wirtz, and also wanted to sign a contract with Crystal Palace and central defender Marc Guehi. No club has sent a proposal to Palace Eze, but good news for Arsenal is that Eze wants to join the Emirates yard if leaving Selhurst Park this summer.
Arsenal is said to want to pay the money to buy Eze in 3 batches, each batch of 20 million pounds, but some people are concerned about the player's position at the Emirates Stadium. His best position is the attacking midfielder, currently undertaken by Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard.
He can play on the left wing, but will face the competition from Gabriel Martinelli. Arsenal is also interested in Madueke if the Eze deal is difficult, but Chelsea wants £ 50 million for his star.
