Should Eze depart Palace, the Eagles will pocket a significant profit on a player they signed from Queens Park Rangers for around £17 million in 2020. He’s since gone on to make 167 appearances for the club across all competitions, scoring 40 goals, becoming a talismanic figure after the departure of Wilfried Zaha to Galatasaray in 2023.

Eberechi Eze is expected to play for Crystal Palace in their Premier League opener against Chelsea. Standard Sport understands that the Eagles star is expected to feature at Stamford Bridge despite Tottenham stepping up their pursuit of the 27-year-old.

Oliver Glasner has praised Eze's professionalism but offered no guarantees he would remain at the club beyond the September 1 deadline.
