Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze will not be joining Tottenham Hotspur this summer, according to Sky Sports journalist Michael Bridge.
Despite strong interest and speculation linking the talented midfielder with a move to North London, it appears that Eze will remain at Selhurst Park for the foreseeable future.
Eze, who has a £68 million release clause, has been a standout performer for Crystal Palace, especially following his impressive season in the Premier League last year.
The 26-year-old scored 11 goals and provided four assists in 27 league appearances, solidifying his reputation as one of the most exciting attacking midfielders in the division. His overall record for Palace is equally impressive, with 27 goals and 17 assists across 127 appearances in all competitions. (Transfermarkt)
His performances have not gone unnoticed at the international level, with Eze earning a spot in England’s final 26-man squad for the recent European Championship, further boosting his profile.
