Arsenal has decided to cease their pursuit of Eberechi Eze since Crystal Palace demands over £60 million for the attacking midfielder. Journalist Graeme Bailey reports that Arsenal liked Eze, but the asking price is too high. Unlike Arsenal, Tottenham views Eze as flexible enough to play on the left side, which may prompt them to make a move. Arsenal is shifting focus toward strengthening their left flank instead of pursuing a player primarily seen as a number 10.
Eze is a tricky one. Steve Parish is asking well over £60 million, which is a difficult price. Arsenal liked the player, but that move seems to be off for now.
Unlike Arsenal, who always viewed Eze as a number 10 rather than a solution for the left-hand side, Tottenham see him as someone who can play on the left.
That flexibility is likely to push Spurs to make a move in the coming days. Meanwhile, Arsenal are expected to focus on strengthening the left-hand side rather than pursuing someone they see primarily as a number 10.
