FootballTransfers understands that Arsenal are considering placing a bid for Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze after cooling their interest in Real Madrid winger Rodrygo. We are told that Arsenal have put their pursuit of the Brazilian superstar on ice for now as they are unwilling to waste any more time waiting for him to make a decision on his Real Madrid future.

After a standout season for Crystala Palace, which culminated in the 26-year-old scoring the winning goal in the FA Cup final, he is once again hot property. Eze’s current contract is understood to contain a £68million release clause which has sparked a scramble for his signature.
