Eberechi Eze agrees new Crystal Palace deal despite Arsenal and Man Utd interest

Eberechi Eze has agreed terms on a new long-term contract at Crystal Palace, sources have confirmed to 90min.

The attacking midfielder enjoyed a career-best campaign under Roy Hodgson in 2022/23, bagging 10 goals and four assists to reinforce his status as one of the most exciting players in the Premier League.

The 25-year-old's form saw him called up to Gareth Southgate's England squad, and he went on to make substitute appearances for the Three Lions against Malta and Scotland.

Eze has recently been sidelined by injury, after picking up where he left off last season form wise, but returned to the Palace side last weekend to grab an assist in the 2-0 win over struggling Burnley at Turf Moor.

90min understands that Arsenal, Tottenham, Manchester United, Newcastle United and West Ham United have all been tracking Eze's progress, but there has always been hope in south London that he'd commit his future to the Eagles.

Sources have confirmed to 90min that Eze has now agreed new and improved terms at Selhurst Park which includes the tricky playmaker receiving a hefty wage rise - one that reflects his improved standing in the Game and more than trebles the money he was on.

News of Eze's new contract will be a welcome boost for Palace supporters, who also saw Michael Olise shun interest from Chelsea in the summer to sign a new long-term contract. The 21-year-old is yet to make an appearance in 2023/24 though, with a serious hamstring injury setting back his brisk progress.

Marquez didn’t want to battle Martin in Qatar to not hurt his MotoGP title hopes

Image
Martin endured a torrid grand prix in Qatar on Sunday, as a problem with his rear tyre meant he struggled to 10th while title rival Francesco Bagnaia finished second. The Pramac rider is now 21 points adrift of Bagnaia in the championship, having cut his lead down to seven 24 hours earlier after winning the sprint, and later raged against Michelin for 'stealing' the title from him. Martin found himself at one stage fighting with Honda's Marquez before the eight-time world champion eventually finished down in 11th. Speaking after the race, Marquez said he could see Martin was struggling with rear grip but didn't want to fight him too hard as the points gained wouldn't have "changed my life". "I did the whole race behind Martin," Marquez said. "At the beginning I saw that he was pulling hard and we were catching the group a little bit, but then I saw that he was starting to lose quite a bit of speed compare...

How Tottenham could line up with Timo Werner

Image
Tottenham Hotspur are signing Timo Werner on an initial loan deal until the end of the season. What a sentence. Go back two-and-a-half years to when Chelsea won the Champions League. Their starting front three now all play for rival clubs, with Kai Havertz at Arsenal and Mason Mount at Manchester United. What's even stranger about Spurs' move for Werner is that, six months removed from the soul-crushing sale of Harry Kane, the mood has hardly ever been better in N17. Ange Postecoglou has been on the lookout for another versatile forward and in Werner he has a player capable of filling various holes despite his deficiencies. Where will Werner play for Tottenham? Here are the different ways he could be deployed. Coming in off the left Werner has pace to burn / Masashi Hara/GettyImages Werner's most likely route into the starting XI comes on the left wing, particularly with Son Heung-min currently away at the Asian Cup with South Korea. Though initially signed by Chelsea as a ...
