According to Tottenham insider Paul O’Keefe, Crystal Palace have made it clear that any club interested in acquiring Eberechi Eze this summer will have to meet the attacking midfielder’s release clause.

The Eagles have taken a firm stance on their prized asset, who is currently with the England national team preparing for Euro 2024.

Despite the ongoing speculation surrounding Eze’s future, with Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United reportedly set to battle for his signature, Crystal Palace have set their terms for any potential deal.

O’Keefe revealed that the release clause in Eze’s contract could exceed £60 million, including add-ons.

However, O’Keefe cautioned that triggering such release clauses is often a complicated process, and meeting the financial requirement is merely the first step in negotiating a deal. He explained, “On release clauses.

Worth noting that ‘triggering’ the amount only gains you permission to speak to the player.

The specific details can vary such as X amount initial payment, whereas others might have a specific value.

They can often be poorly drafted and open to interpretation.”

Crystal Palace’s stance emphasizes their determination to secure a substantial fee upfront for their star player.

O’Keefe stated, “Understand Crystal Palace’s current stance on Eberechi Eze is that any club will need to be prepared to pay a considerable amount of the fee up-front.

A fee that in total could exceed £60m.”

If Eze is indeed Ange Postecoglou’s top summer target for Tottenham, the club should be prepared to meet Crystal Palace’s demands without hesitation.

Reports suggest that the England international is open to making the move across London to N17, which could facilitate negotiations between the two clubs.

Crystal Palace’s firm stance on Eze’s release clause underscores the player’s value to the club and their unwillingness to part ways with him easily.

Any potential suitors, including Tottenham and Manchester United, will need to be prepared to meet the Eagles’ financial demands upfront to have a chance at securing the talented midfielder’s services.
