Although the reason for Tottenham's decision is unclear, the door is now open for Arsenal to pursue Eze. According to reports, Arsenal has made contact with Eze's representatives over the weekend and is exploring the possibility of a deal.
Eze is believed to be an Arsenal fan, which could help facilitate the transfer. The club is looking to upgrade its left-wing options, and Eze's proven track record in the Premier League makes him a promising candidate. Last season, he scored 14 goals and provided 11 assists in 43 matches.
One of the concerns surrounding Eze's release clause is its size. However, Arsenal is committed to complying with financial rules and is likely to pay the full amount to secure Eze's services without worrying about the future cost.
Crystal Palace's star player has a release clause of £68 million, which can be paid in installments if necessary. But Arsenal is willing to pay the amount in full to secure Eze's services, without worrying about the future cost of the deal.
