Tottenham Hotspur's move to sign Eberechi Eze from Crystal Palace took a fresh twist on Sunday after he was named in the Eagles starting XI to face Chelsea, despite reports he would be left out, although the transfer is still on course to be concluded.

Eberechi Eze is one step away from signing for Tottenham. Eberechi Eze is about to take a significant step in his career. The midfielder from Crystal Palace has agreed personal terms with Tottenham Hotspur since the beginning of the week, as confirmed by journalist Fabrizio Romano.

According to Sacha Tavolieri, Talks between Crystal Palace and Tottenham Hotspur are not as advanced as expected. Oliver Glasner and Eberechi Eze have agreed that Eze will make himself available for the Chelsea game to help his teammates in the London derby.

Mikel Arteta and his Arsenal players are celebrating a winning start to the Premier League season but the final two weeks of the transfer window could bring fresh developments

The Liverpool Echo reports that the Toffees are in the market to sign a wide man, but have been priced out of a move for Dibling by Southampton. Manchester United want to accept Roma’s bid of £20million for Jadon Sancho.

According to reports, Thomas Frank has ‘approved’ Tottenham Hotspur’s ‘priority’ signing after Eberechi Eze as they have ‘launched a £70m bid’. Spurs have been active in this summer’s transfer window as the ninth-biggest spending club in Europe. They have invested around £120m on signings, notably Mohammed Kudus, Mathys Tel and Joao Pahlinha.

Pape Matar Sarr is once again set to play in the more advanced midfield role, with the deal for the 27-year-old unlikely to be done in time for the first game of the new season. That means just one change for the former Brentford manager, with Wilson Odobert coming in to replace Kevin Danso to allow Spurs to be a bit more attacking.

Hotspur are in advanced talks with Crystal Palace for Eberechi Eze, who Arsenal have decided not to sign this summer.
