Eberechi Eze’s stance on Tottenham transfer revealed as Spurs confident of deal

Tottenham are aiming to add to their squad ahead of next season’s Champions League return and have put Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze right at the top of their shortlist

Tottenham believe they can finally land Eberechi Eze this summer. Mirror Sport revealed on Sunday that Spurs are looking towards the Crystal Palace star as they try and strengthen their forward line.

And they believe Eze would be keen on the switch with other clubs also interested in the player who has a £68m buy-out clause. Tottenham ’s new boss Thomas Frank has prioritised a wide player in the transfer market and they have already made a £65m-plus for Bryan Mbeumo and have made enquiries for Bournemouth ’s Antoine Semenyo.

But England international Eze is also a long-term target and they have been getting encouraging noises about whether he would move to Spurs this summer.

Newcastle and Aston Villa have also been linked with Eze while Palace are desperate to keep him after he helped them win the FA Cup and clinch a placce in Europe.

Frank is desperate to strengthen his wide options with Son Heung-min potentially leaving amid strong interest from the Saudi Pro League.

Tottenham remain keen on Mbeumo but face major competition from Manchester United who have made a £55m bid for the Brentford forward.

Frank has a strong link with Mbeumo from Brentford and will be keen to bring him in but the forward has been keen on going to United. That deal is still a possibility for Spurs but they remain determined to strengthen.

Tottenham have made enquiries on Semenyo but Bournemouth do not want to sell after losing Dean Huijsen to Real Madrid while Liverpool are closing in on left back Milos Kerkez.

Bournemouth will demand around £70m for Semenyo and Spurs are now exploring options as they look to bolster their squad for the new manager and also ahead of a season back in the Champions League.

But Tottenham know they could get Eze if they trigger the buy-out clause which has been widely reported – just as long as the player agrees to the switch.
