Arsenal strengthen in attack
Eze, who scored 11 Premier League goals last season, has been one of the most sought-after players in English football. His ability to operate across the frontline will provide Mikel Arteta with vital options as the Gunners aim to mount a serious challenge for the Premier League title and make a deep run in the Champions League.
The 27-year-old England international’s flair, dribbling ability and eye for goal have made him a standout in the Premier League. His preference for Arsenal is seen as a major victory, particularly as Spurs had also been pushing hard for his signature.
A statement signing
This deal continues Arsenal’s summer of big moves, which includes the arrival of Viktor Gyökeres and Martin Zubimendi. Eze’s addition underlines the club’s determination to build a squad capable of going toe-to-toe with Manchester City and Real Madrid at the very top level.
Crystal Palace will now be without their talisman, but the £60m+ package will give them funds to reshape their squad before the deadline. For Arsenal fans, however, this is a night to celebrate as one of the most exciting attacking talents in the league swaps Selhurst Park for the Emirates.
Do you think Eze is the final piece of Arteta’s attacking puzzle?
