Tottenham Hotspur have been handed a boost in the race for Eberechi Eze, with The Athletic now revealing that Manchester City are not expected to make an offer for the Crystal Palace star this summer.
Tottenham have a firm interest in Eberechi Eze
Over the last few weeks, Eze has been named as one of Tottenham’s top summer targets, with the Lilywhites, thought to be prioritising a deal for the Palace player at the moment (TEAMtalk).
However, some outlets have claimed that the North London club have to contend with competition from Manchester City for the 25-year-old.
This includes a recent update from The Sun, who suggested that both Spurs and the Premier League champions are willing to trigger the £60m release clause in the England star’s contract at Selhurst Park.
Man City are not expected to enter transfer race
The Athletic have now also backed up the existence of a £60m release clause in Eze’s contract and Tottenham’s interest in the player.
However, they say that Spurs would not have to worry about Pep Guardiola’s men swooping for Eze this summer.
It is explained while City were strongly considering making a move for Eze last summer, they are currently not planning any such offer for the QPR man.
Spurs Web Opinion
It does appear as if Tottenham has identified Eze as the one big-money signing that they want to make this summer.
Spurs would not want to put all their eggs in the Palace star’s basket, which is perhaps why they are also said assessing a deal to sign Rennes winger Desire Doue.
