For offensive midfielder Eberechi Eze of Crystal Palace, Manchester City is prepared to put everything on the line.
According to Fichajes, Manchester City has made offensive midfielder Eberechi Eze of Crystal Palace their top target for the summer transfer season. The player is highly valued by the club, who hope to bring him into the fold before the next campaign begins.
Even last summer, the Citizens attempted to entice Eze to leave his present club. Sadly, though, the two sides were unable to come to an understanding. The reigning champions, though, are prepared to pay the Eagles’ asking price of €90 million for the star.
Eberechi Eze knows the Premier League very well
Coming through the ranks of English football, Eberechi Eze signed for Crystal Palace in the summer of 2020 for a reported fee of around £17 million. Since then, he has climbed up the ladders step by step and has established himself in the side.
The English footballer has appeared in 22 games this season so far, contributing six goals and three assists. He is averaging 2.8 shots, 2.4 key passes and 1.7 dribbles per game. Though he mainly plays as an attacking midfielder, he can also operate on the left flank (stats via whoscored).
Eze is good at dribbling and taking long-range shots. He also has the ability to score from set pieces. With pin-point crosses and intelligent passes, he becomes a threat to the opposition. The 25-year-old still has three years left on his contract.
Manchester City are ready to sign Eberechi Eze
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is impressed with Eberechi Eze’s profile. He wants to mark his presence in the squad to bolster their already star-studded lineup. He has been forcing the club to go for his signature and the management has finally decided to sanction a big sum.
The English attacking midfielder is willing to make a switch too. He will have a prominent role to play in one of the most in-form teams across Europe. The Citizens can use the player in the midfield as well as on the left flank. With the uncertainty over the futures of Kevin de Bruyne and Jack Grealish at Etihad Stadium, Eze’s arrival will be a good move.
