Eberechi Eze is having a brilliant season with Crystal Palace and has not gone unnoticed. With 36 games, 9 goals, and 11 assists in all competitions, the English attacking midfielder has been one of the team's standout players, which is also in a historic FA Cup final. However, all signs point to this being his last year wearing the "Eagles" shirt.
It has been learned that Eze has made a clear decision: he will not renew his contract with Palace, even though he still has two years left until June 2027. His plan is to seek new horizons this summer, looking for a more ambitious project. And offers are not lacking.
Manchester City and Chelsea want to activate his £70 million release clause.
Manchester City and Chelsea have already made moves to try to sign him. Both clubs see in Eze a player with quality, vision, and unpredictability, ideal to strengthen their squads for the upcoming season. However, it won't be easy to lure him away from Selhurst Park. The South London club has made it clear that they will only let him go if a team triggers the release clause, set at £70 million.
From Palace's perspective, the stance is understandable: they don't want to lose money or end up in a weak position due to the departure of one of their top players. They are aware that if they don't sell him now, they might face a situation similar to other players who left for less as their contracts neared expiration.
Eze, on his part, aims to capitalize on his current form. At 26 years old, he feels it's the perfect time to take a leap in his career and compete for titles. Everything points to him being one of the hottest names in the summer transfer market.
