Crystal Palace is at the heart of many transfer rumors in this final stretch of the summer transfer window. While Michael Olise had been in Chelsea’s sights for several weeks, the 21-year-old finally decided to extend his adventure in the colors of the Eagles. The right winger has indeed renewed his lease for the next four seasons. The French international U21 (seven selections for one achievement) is therefore now linked to the English club until June 2027.

But that’s not all since Eberechi Eze is also targeted by a Premier League cador, and not just anyone. Manchester City, who scored a resounding treble (Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup) last season, are reportedly considering signing the attacking midfielder from Crystal Palace after the trail leading to Lucas Paquet failed according to the latest indiscretions of our colleagues from DailyMail. While the former Lyonnais was to join the Skyblues, the English Federation discovered that his relatives would have bet on matches in which the West Ham midfielder was playing, which would have derailed the operation.

Crystal Place asks for more than 80 million euros

The English media also adds that Eberechi Eze, who is still under contract until 2025 with Crystal Palace, has been in Manchester City’s crosshairs for several months now after having impressed Skyblues recruiters by being the conductor. of the Eagles’ offensive line. The London native, who was first selected for the England first team by Gareth Southgate last June, is even being targeted by many Premier League clubs, recalls the DailyMailwhile the main interested party has passed a milestone since his arrival in the English capital in 2020.

Manchester City is therefore active at the end of the transfer window to finalize two burning files. On the one hand, the Jérémy Doku operation is about to be finalized while a total agreement has been reached between the leaders of Stade Rennais and their English counterparts for the transfer of the Belgian winger, as we recently revealed. And the management of the Cityzens should also put a boost to complete the arrival of Eberechi Eze even if Crystal Palace is very greedy and claims 70 million pounds sterling, or just over 80 million euros, for release his player.
