London, England – Arsenal don yarn say dem ready to battle for Eberechi Eze from Crystal Palace, but na big money dem go need shell out. Crystal Palace no wan gree make dem run am for less than £67.5 million, wey include bonuses. So, make we seat make dem settle am na.
Reports show say Arsenal don hold initial talks with Palace officials, but dem don cash out early as Palace don request £35 million up front. Na wetin dem dey call ‘serious cash’ o! (Talk about making your pockets lighter.) Eze get two years left for him contract, after dem pay £19.5 million to bring am from Queens Park Rangers back in 2020.
Palace dey firm for their stance, as dem no wan accept any bid wey no enter Eze’s release clause. The reality be say dem dey brace for serious negotiation as na only so dem fit negotiate. Arsenal don drop more than £200 million already this summer on six new players—chukwu! How dem go fit balance am if dem no waka some players go?
Leandro Trossard don catch the attention of other clubs, and Fulham dey eye Reiss Nelson too. Sambi Lokonga, Oleksandr Zinchenko, and Fábio Vieira too dey look for better opportunities. Everybody dey hustle to make this transfer happen because time no dey wait for anybody, especially as Premier League season wan begin on August 16.
Meanwhile, Oliver Glasner, the Palace manager, na man wey no dey carry last. Him don voice him frustration about the club’s transfer activity, say dem no dey make the most of the window. Dem only don sign goalkeeper Walter Benítez and defender Borna Sosa, and he dey fear say if dem no fit bring in fresh players, e fit cause another ‘false start’ to their season. E dey pray say no player go japa before di new signings land.
Eze supposed be serious addition for Arsenal, especially with him FA Cup final winner that time against Manchester City dey fresh for our memory. If him fit join Arsenal, e go bring that flair wey dem dey miss. But this Palace no dey play as dem hold tight to their prize asset.
For Arsenal, if dem wan make this Eze deal happen, dem need better strategy and financial acumen. If dem fit sell plenty players, dem go get room to maneuver—abi dem go still dey plan to spend recklessly for transfer window? We go dey watch how this drama go unfold, as Eze dey gbadun switch to North London.
Na so e be for now, as Arsenal dey strategize and Palace dey stand gidigba. E go be matter of who fit move faster for di negotiations before di clock run down. Make we keep our eyes open as this transfer saga dey unfold, because football no dey ever dull!
