Arsenal pushing for Eberechi Eze summer move

By on July 5, 2025

Arsenal could sign Eberechi Eze in a discounted deal this summer with Crystal Palace now open to taking a player in exchange, according to fresh reports from Givemesport.

The Gunners struggled to create enough chances in the final third last season, something Mikel Arteta is determined to fix.

Eze has become a top target for Arsenal, with Arteta seeing the England international as a key signing to add more spark in attack.

The 27-year-old was one of Palace’s best performers last season and played a major role in their historic cup win.

He scored the only goal in the final, helping Palace to lift their first ever major trophy in club history.

Arsenal are firm admirers of the midfielder and have made their interest in bringing him to north London very clear.

Palace open to swap option amid high clause

The Gunners are said to be reluctant to meet Eze’s full release clause which starts at £60 million and could rise to £68 million, as per the report.

Instead, Arsenal are hoping to agree a deal worth slightly less than the figure, and Palace may now be open to a compromise.

Palace are reportedly now willing to take one Arsenal player in exchange as part of any deal to help push things forward.

While the exact name has not been mentioned, it is believed discussions are ongoing to identify a player who fits Palace’s plans.

Arsenal are aware that Eze wants the move, which gives them a strong advantage during negotiations with Palace.

Still, they know the most straightforward way to seal the deal is to simply activate his release clause.

For now, the club are weighing their options and trying to find a more cost-friendly route to land the midfielder.

Eze’s style of play is seen as a perfect match for Arteta’s system, especially with his flair, control, and eye for goal.

The Gunners will continue to push hard to bring him in, knowing that they are firmly in the race to get the deal done.
