Arsenal are preparing a bid for Crystal Palace midfielder Eberechi Eze, with the England international open to a transfer after talks with the Gunners.

Eze has a release clause worth as much as €80 million, so Arsenal are exploring whether a different formula could be agreed with Crystal Palace, potentially one that would see them spend slightly more in exchange for better payment terms.

Arsenal have explored the possibility of making a move to sign England and Crystal Palace attacking midfielder Eberechi Eze this summer.
