Arsenal Remain Keen On Recruiting This Crystal Palace Star This Summer: Should Arteta Move In For Him?
In a recent newsletter with Give Me Sport, renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano claimed that Arsenal remain keen on recruiting Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze this summer. Romano said,
“Yes, but Eze is higher on their (Arsenal) list and Simons is currently in advanced talks with Chelsea.”
Eze’s Impressive Form In The Premier League
The English playmaker put in a string of impressive performances for the Eagles in the previous campaign. Eze managed to shine for Crystal Palace in the final third after he registered 14 goals and picked up 11 assists in 43 matches for them last season across various competitions.

The 27-year-old was a reliable performer up top and did well to average 3.48 shots per 90 minutes in Premier League football. However, he kept only 27% of his attempts on target. Eze distributed the ball relatively well as he completed 74.2% of his attempted passes in the English top tier (stats via fbref.com).
Eze’s current deal at Selhurst Park will expire in the summer of 2027. Thus, the Gunners would have to make a convincing offer if they want to lure him to the Emirates Stadium this off-season.
Should Arsenal Boss Mikel Arteta Move In For Eze?
Eze can shoot the ball with venom from long range and is a good dribbler with the ball at his feet. He has got the eye to play some killer passes in the final third and can chip in by scoring a handful of important goals for his team.
The England international has got a wealth of experience in the Premier League and won’t take much time to settle into life at Arsenal. Furthermore, he could go on to form a creative partnership with Martin Odegaard at the London club.
Eze would inject more quality and depth into Mikel Arteta’s frontline. He is more than capable of nailing down a regular first-team spot at the North London club next season.
At 27, Eze is about to enter his prime which makes him a worthy target for the Gunners to pursue in this transfer window. He might even help Arsenal compete for a lot of major honours over the next few years. With all things considered, Arteta should focus on moving in for Eze before the end of this transfer window.
