There is a possibility that Everech Eze will not wear a Tottenham uniform.

David Onstein, a reporter who works for The Athletic in the UK and boasts the highest public confidence in England, appeared on a media podcast on the 14th (Korea time) to talk about the future of Eze.

Currently, Eze is one of Tottenham's players. This is to fill the gap between Son Heung-min, who left for LA FC, and James Madison, who suffered a long-term injury, at the same time. Eze is a creative resource to play in any position on the second line. He is also a proven player in the Premier League (EPL) who can demonstrate destructive power and creativity at the same time.




Eze is now understood to have a willingness to leave Crystal Palace and challenge for the best stage in Europe. Eze is also attracting interest from Arsenal, so fierce recruitment competition is expected. I thought Tottenham were working quickly to bring Eze, but reporter Onstein brought up a completely different story.

He said "That's the buyout clause that's been talked about a lot this time. The price of 68 million pounds (about 127.4 billion won) and when this clause expires. But even without a buyout clause, the amount Palace will ask for would be that much. It is already known that Arsenal showed strong interest and spoke with the players. But this time, it turned out that Tottenham was also having some conversation about the situation. However, as far as I am concerned, neither of these clubs is currently willing to pay the approximately £68m buyout clause amount that Palace want."

If Palace does not pay the price they want, it will be difficult to recruit Eze. If Eze has only one year left on his contract with Palace, Palace will face pressure to sell, but Eze still has two years left on his contract. If you don't get the offer you want, it's not too late to write Eze in the upcoming season and sell Eze next summer.

Journalist Onstein said "Eze is likely to remain at Palace unless things change, and all the clubs are suddenly unwilling to pay the sum. However, it is not known whether this will continue until after the transfer market. Things can change at any time, and if Palace lowers their demands, then these two clubs or other teams can step up"Eze's transfer is currently unlikely," he said.

Tottenham seemed to be moving to actively recruit players after the absence of Son Heung-min and Madison, but in the end, they are hesitating again in the process of paying the transfer fee as in the past.

`Tottenham is looking for players to play No. 8 and No. 10 due to Son's departure and injuries to players like Madison. There are several candidates, but they may not fit in terms of price and age. Palace's position will be firmer as the transfer deadline nears. This is not only because of financial losses, but also because there is a problem of less time to find a replacement. So there is no clear direction on this matter yet,' he said, predicting that Tottenham may not recruit Eze.

Tottenham should move quickly if they are not going to bring Eze in. This is because other teams do not want to sell their core resources because there are not many remaining transfer markets.
