Tottenham linked with Eze update

Tottenham Hotspur linked with Crystal Palace attacker Eberechi Eze as transfer chatter intensifies ahead of the window deadline.

Tottenham set to land Eberechi Eze with No7 option

Tottenham Hotspur remain linked with Crystal Palace forward Eberechi Eze as the transfer window nears its close. Reports say the England international has an uncertain future at Palace and a move could hinge on price after talk of a 68 million pounds release clause being questioned earlier in the summer. Any deal would require talks with Palace and Spurs would need to agree a fee before the deadline. Tottenham have already signed six players this summer, including Mohammed Kudus, Mathys Tel, Kevin Danso, Luka Vuskovic, Kota Takai and Joao Palhinha on loan from Bayern Munich.

The No7 shirt is available to new signings after Son Heung Min left for Los Angeles FC, while the No10 is taken by James Maddison at Spurs. It remains to be seen if Eze would pick No7 or another number. Spurs have already signed six players this summer, including Kudus, Tel, Danso, Vuskovic, Takai and Palhinha on loan from Bayern Munich. The timing of a potential move would depend on fee negotiations and how well the deal aligns with Spurs wage structure and squad depth.

The Eze link shows how Spurs try to balance ambition with budget discipline. A high price could stretch wages and complicate other plans, while adding a creative playmaker could unlock attacking potential. This move would be a test of how far Tottenham is willing to push its wage bill to secure a player who can open compact defenses.

This transfer chatter also shows a broader trend in the Premier League where clubs chase big names late in the window. Deadline day drama tests front offices as they juggle selling clubs, loan players and wage rules. The big question is whether a deal would help Spurs win more games this season.
