Former Premier League midfielder Kevin Nolan has backed Tottenham Hotspur to make a move for talented Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze.
Tottenham have been linked with a potential move for Eberechi Eze all summer long (TEAMtalk), with Fabrizio Romano even revealing that the Lilywhites have been in touch with his agents since February.
With his ability to play as an attacking midfielder or on the left wing, Eze has caught the eyes of many for his vision, skill on the ball and ability to create space for his teammates through his off-the-ball runs.
Managing 11 goals and four assists in 27 Premier League appearances last season, it is no wonder Eze is in demand (Premier League).
The 26-year-old was recently left unsettled when Michael Olise left Crystal Palace to join Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich, causing him to consider his future at the South London club (HITC).
But with three years remaining on his contract, securing Eze’s signature will not be easy, with Palace setting a £60 million release clause in his deal, plus add-ons (The Mail).
Nolan, who most recently acted as a coach at West Ham praised Eze on during a recent appearance on talkSPORT (24/07/24 at 8:25 am) and backed Spurs to make a move for the highly-rated attacker.
He said: “I think he [Eze] would be a fantastic fit [at Tottenham]. He’s an unbelievable player. I really like him. We played him in COVID, in a friendly, when he was at QPR.
“After all the lads, you know when lads come in and they have played against him, and it was like ‘what a player’, then he ended up going to Palace. What a signing he has been for them.”

Eze is not the only England international to have been liked with Tottenham this summer and it would be good to have players representing Spurs in the national side again.
He is a quality player and a move to Tottenham could be exactly what he needs to take his career to the next level.
