Premier League star is interested in spearheading Thomas Frank's Tottenham rebuild
Tottenham have been handed a surprise boost in their pursuit of Eberechi Eze, with the winger now said to be open to a move to north London.
Tottenham Hotspur’s transfer activity has been slow this summer, and that would not surprise many Spurs fans who watched their club complete their winter signings late in the window, despite the club managing an injury crisis.
However, late deals in this transfer window would be far from ideal, as Thomas Frank, who only just joined Spurs a little over ten days ago, will be keen to have ample time with his new group of players ahead of the start of the season, including new signings.
Reports in the past few weeks have constantly linked Tottenham with wingers, and that comes as little surprise, given that Heung-min Son could leave this summer and Dejan Kulusevski is sidelined until the spring.
Eberechi Eze is interested in a Tottenham transfer
Bryan Mbeumo is a key target for Tottenham, who are hoping to hijack a deal from Manchester United, with the Red Devils currently in pole position to land the Brentford man.
Antoine Semenyo is seen as an alternative to the Cameroon international, who grabbed 20 Premier League goals last season, but Bournemouth’s hefty price tag is said to be a stumbling block for Tottenham.
Eberechi Eze has long been admired by Tottenham, and it was revealed that a pursuit of Mbeumo would not kill off Spurs’ interest in Eze, who has only two years left on his current deal and a £68 million release clause that becomes active this summer.
An interesting option for meeting Eze’s release clause was revealed just yesterday, one that could work well for the Lilywhites, but it remains to be seen if they would take it.
A fresh update from The Sun has now revealed that Eberechi Eze is keen on securing a move to Tottenham Hotspur and that the prospect of playing for Spurs in the Champions League appeals to the versatile winger.
In fact, the way The Sun put it, Eberechi Eze is interested in spearheading the Thomas Frank revolution at Tottenham Hotspur.
Spurs have reportedly been tracking Eze for years, and while he is not guaranteed to leave Palace this summer, it could finally happen. It remains to be seen whether Tottenham would have the funds to push for both Eze and Bryan Mbeumo.
Why Eze is perfect for Thomas Frank’s Spurs rebuild
Thomas Frank is reported to be a big admirer of Eze, who has continued to impress during his time at Selhurst Park.

The winger, last campaign, grabbed an impressive 25 goal involvements in 43 appearances, scoring 14 times and assisting 11 more, including a goal in the FA Cup final against Manchester City and one against Spurs ten days before the final clash.
Spurs have signed Mathys Tel permanently on a six-year deal, but we revealed exclusively that the permanent signing of the Frenchman will not prevent Tottenham from securing another attacker, and with Eze open to a move to N17, it remains to be seen if Tottenham go for the 26-year-old.
