In a recent report, The Guardian mentioned that Arsenal are showing interest in Crystal Palace playmaker Eberechi Eze this summer. It has been claimed that the Gunners are among the clubs hoping to recruit the English talent this off-season.

Eze's Impressive Run Of Form In Premier League Football Eze enjoyed a decent campaign at the London club after he put in a series of impressive displays for them in the final third. The 26-year-old deserves some credit for scoring 11 goals and earning six assists in 31 matches for Crystal Palace last season on all fronts.

The English attacker was a decent performer in the final third based on his average of 3.1 shots, 2.0 key passes, 1.3 dribbles and 2.6 dribbles per 90 minutes in the Premier League. He was even tidy when distributing the ball in the opponent's half, as evidenced by his pass completion rate of 83.7% in league football (stats via whoscored).

His current contract at Selhurst Park will run out in the summer of 2027 which could make it tough for the Gunners to get a deal done for him on the cheap later this year.

The English playmaker can contribute by scoring and creating his fair share of goals in the opponent's half. He is primarily an attacking midfielder but can also play as a left-winger if asked to do so by his manager.

At 26, Eze has his best years ahead of him which makes him a good choice for the Gunners to consider in this summer transfer window. He might even help the North London club challenge across all competitions in the coming years.

We can expect Eze to bring more firepower to Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta's frontline. He might even help the Gunners challenge for some major trophies in the future. Therefore, Arteta would be wise to go all out to bring him on board before the end of this transfer window.
