Eberechi Eze
Crystal Palace have confirmed the departure of Eberechi Eze to Arsenal in a club-record sale worth up to £60m.
The 27-year-old joins the Gunners after five outstanding seasons in SE25, where he became one of the greatest players in Palace history.
Eze leaves with a legacy few can match in red and blue. Since signing from QPR in 2020, he made 169 appearances, scoring 40 goals and assisting 28 more. He was central to Palace’s historic FA Cup triumph last season, scoring in every round from the third to the final – including the winner at Wembley.
The move comes after north London rivals Tottenham had agreed a deal with both club and player, only for Arsenal to make a late move. A boyhood Gunners fan and former Hale End academy player, Eze chose to return to the club where his football journey began.
Off the pitch, Eze was equally influential. A six-time Player of the Month, two-time Goal of the Season winner, and one of the club’s PFA Community Champions, his work in South London has been widely praised.
Chairman Steve Parish said: “Eberechi’s journey is truly incredible – from being released by multiple clubs to scoring the Cup final-winning goal and bringing Palace our first major trophy. Just as importantly, he’s a great person: humble, positive and an inspiration to so many. He will always be welcome back at Selhurst Park.”
Eze also earned 12 England caps during his time at Palace, becoming the club’s first international goalscorer for the Three Lions since Peter Taylor in 1976.
