Liverpool and Arsenal Eye Eberechi Eze Amid £60m Release Clause Watch

Eze on Radar of Premier League’s Elite

As the summer transfer window draws near, one name is quietly dominating boardroom conversations: Eberechi Eze. The Crystal Palace playmaker is attracting serious interest from top Premier League clubs, with CaughtOffside reporting that “Arsenal and Liverpool are Eze’s main suitors.”

The 26-year-old has matured into one of the most technically gifted attacking midfielders in the division. Comfortable operating between the lines or drifting out wide, Eze has shown a flair and confidence rarely found outside the league’s ‘big six’. His ball-carrying, vision, and ability to change a game single-handedly have made him indispensable for Palace — and now irresistible to clubs seeking an extra edge in the final third.

According to CaughtOffside, “The England international has a £60m release clause in his Palace contract, and the Premier League’s top clubs are understood to be eager to snap him up in the coming months.” At that price, given the inflated nature of the current market, Eze could be considered a relative bargain.

Midfield Options Explored by Arsenal and Liverpool

For Arsenal, Eze could be the creative foil to Martin Ødegaard — a player who could lift some of the creative weight from the Norwegian’s shoulders. As CaughtOffside points out, “Eze could be a terrific signing for Arsenal right now, giving them a bit more X-factor in the middle of the park.”

His ability to unlock low blocks and beat players in tight spaces adds a different dimension to Mikel Arteta’s structured but sometimes rigid system. With title aspirations firmly in mind, adding someone capable of moments of individual brilliance could prove the final piece in a championship-winning puzzle.

Liverpool, meanwhile, continue to refine their midfield following last summer’s overhaul. While Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai offer structure and industry, Eze brings unpredictability. As noted in the article, “Liverpool could also surely do well to bring in someone like Eze to give them something a bit different in that department.”

A front-footed midfielder capable of operating in half-spaces and scoring goals would provide fresh attacking variation, particularly under a new manager keen to stamp his identity on the squad.
