Eberechi Eze is being reported this morning as wanting to return to the club which he grew up supporting -Arsenal.Sky Sports reporter Kaveh Solhekol, clearly putting two and two together reckons the Gooners would be the dream move for the Queens Park Rangers playmaker
Allnigeriasoccer.com also claims the player – of Nigerian descent – along with Bright Osayi-Samuel were scouted by Arsenal in the recently concluded season.
Neither suggestion however will carry a lot of weight for supporting a club and being scouted by it mean very little in the great scheme of things.
Top clubs scout players all the time without it necessarily mean that a bid is going to follow so this seems to be a bit of a slow summer window filler story.
Crystal Palace are the only club to have made a firm offer but have made it clear that will not be going to the £20 million required by Rangers and whilst the Hammers boss David Moyes is keen, it looks certain he will keep his powder dry until later on in the window.
Eze was Queens Park Rangers Player of the Year scoring 14 goals and setting up eight others in 46 starts in the Championship.
All part of the regular protracted West Ham transfer dance…..
Moyes obviously wants him and IF this club is going to back him, they’ll offer more than a packet of crisps to get him.
I mean come on, it’s Eze!
Keep his powder dry til then end of the window ,so all the best players will be gone and we panick buy but at least it will give the players a couple hours to bed in before season.starts rather than a couple weeks ..🤣🤣🤣 I really dont get how waiting til the last minute to get deals done, benefits us in any way at all . .makes no sence at all …
We have had this convo many many times. It happens at the end cos players and agents are trying to get the best possible deal not the worst and play the game of leaking stuff and playinng clubs off against each other – or at least that’s the aim
I’m sure I read an article saying he wanted to go to spurs a few months back as that was his boy hood club.
Honestly seen so much fictitious rubbish recently regarding transfers maybe it’s a sign that not much is actually going on.
It’s not a fake news story. Eze was a boyhood Arsenal fan, and still is. He played for arsenal youth. Was released by arsenal at the age of 13, much like Declan rice was released by Chelsea. After he was released by arsenal he cried for a week. His own words and he still hankers after proving he is good enough to play for arsenal and they made a mistake in releasing him. That’s why it’s still his dream move and that’s why it’s being reported by many many news sources apart from this one which thinks it isn’t true.
I’m not sure I said it was a fake news story but suggested sky were putting 2 and 2 together – there’s a difference
