Spurs Eye Eze, Liverpool Targeting Guehi…
Tottenham is hustling to complete a deal for Eberechi Eze, hopefully before the weekend. But Crystal Palace is clutching onto defender Marc Guehi like a squirrel holding its last acorn on a freezing winter day! They’re in deep negotiations over a potential move to Liverpool, but things are as stuck as a sloth in a molasses factory. Palace’s chairman wants to keep his players for their Europa Conference League opener against Fredrikstad.
While Spurs are eager to get Eze onboard, Palace is channeling their inner dragon, breathing fire to maintain control over terms for both Eze and Guehi before the transfer window shuts. Guehi’s situation, as tricky as getting toothpaste back into the tube, hinges on the right price since he could be a free agent next year. Meanwhile, Eze is eyeing a new challenge, aiming for the spotlight with England and in the Champions League. Ironically, Maddison’s ACL injury has put Spurs on the fast track to swoop in for Eze, before Arsenal can find spare change in the couch cushions for another transfer.
