Chelsea Make Strategic Move in Eberechi Eze Chase
Chelsea have officially re-entered the race to sign Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze, holding new talks with the player’s agent on Tuesday, as they look to outmaneuver Arsenal and Bayern Munich for the 26-year-old’s signature.
The Blues are yet to open formal negotiations with Crystal Palace, but sources confirm they are seriously considering triggering Eze’s £60–65 million release clause, pending the player’s go-ahead. The club is exploring creative payment structures — potentially including a player-plus-cash offer featuring Trevoh Chalobah — to soften the financial impact.
This tactical approach puts pressure on Arsenal, who have also engaged with Eze’s representatives and are reportedly prepared to activate the clause if they can balance other targets financially.
⚔️ The Transfer Tug-of-War Heats Up
Chelsea’s angle: Rebuilding under Enzo Maresca, with Eze seen as a key creative asset.
Arsenal’s stance: Long-term admirers who may strike first but face competition.
Bayern’s interest: Monitoring closely, ready to step in if Premier League talks stall.
As the summer window intensifies, all eyes are now on Eze — whose next move could reshape the attacking midfield dynamics at Stamford Bridge or the Emirates.
