Tottenham to hold ‘incredible’ £68m striker talks

Tottenhah Hotspur will now negotiate a deal for the “incredible” star, according to former scout Mick Brown, who is one of the biggest offensive targets in the summer transfer window.

The Spurs begin to strengthen their offensive plan

Although Tottenham Hotspur’s season was beaten by Manchester United in the Europa League final, there will be significant concerns about their Premier League format, ranking 17th after only 38 points.

The frontline is not an issue with Ange Postecoglou team, who scored 64 goals throughout the campaign, which is fourth in Chelsea, but it seems the manager now seems keen to upgrade his offense in the summer.

After qualifying for the Champions League next season, the Spurs should be in a position to attract some top players, although interests like Arsenal and Chelsea signed a favorite with Bayern Munich’s Leroy Sane.

Of course, Sane is experienced in the Premier League, with 25 goals and 30 assists on Manchester City’s top flight, but the North Londoner also has another winger on the shortlist, who has recently been successful in England.

According to Brown, Tottenham Hotspur will now trade for Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze, who has been identified as one of the biggest offensive targets of the summer, in an interview with football insiders.

Brown said: “Tottenham Hotspur is one of the clubs to watch Ez,”

“I heard his agent had some connections there, so I had no doubt they would talk to him, and that’s where many of this type of action started.”

However, it may be difficult to attract England International away from the palace, as the winger is considered “happy” at Selhurst Park and he is protected by a £68 million release clause.

Eze may be “incredible” signing, Tottenham Hotspur

Of course, Eze played a role in the Palace’s shocking FA Cup victory, scoring Manchester City’s only goal in the final, and he had previously been praised by Statman Dave as “incredible”.

So, there is no doubt that Tottenham Hotspur is very passionate about the 26-year-old who scored 14 goals and 11 assists for the Palace in all competitions during the 2024-25 campaign, contributing more goals than any player at Postecoglou.

Given that Selhurst Park’s striker is happy, the only way to secure an opportunity to sign may trigger his £68m release clause, but his recent performances suggest that this amount of spending is justified.

With son Yang Y’s summer going to be 33, it may be important to have a long-term replacement this summer, and Eze’s performance suggests he may be the ideal heir to the Koreans.
