Man Utd Join Race to Sign Arsenal and Tottenham Target Eze
Manchester United have joined Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur in the pursuit of Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze, according to journalist Samuel Luckhurst.
The 26-year-old had a standout season, scoring 11 goals and providing four assists in 27 Premier League games. His impressive form earned him a place in England’s squad for the European Championship, where he helped the team reach the final.
Despite interest from top English clubs, including Tottenham, no formal offers materialized this summer, leaving Eze at Selhurst Park. Tottenham remains interested and may pursue him in 2025, while Arsenal plans to intensify their efforts next year.
Now, Manchester Evening News reports that Manchester United are also considering Eze as a potential signing for next summer. Eze has a £68 million release clause in his contract, which could be activated next year.
Manchester United currently have four wingers, but Marcus Rashford has struggled to find his best form in recent years, and Antony has yet to fully establish himself since joining from Ajax. Strengthening their wide forward position next year could be beneficial, and Eberechi Eze, with his proven Premier League performance, would be an excellent acquisition.
Eze’s versatility allows him to play effectively on the left wing or in an attacking midfield role. He is technically skilled, adept at dribbling in tight spaces, linking up play, taking set-pieces, and scoring from distance.
Eze would be a valuable addition for Arsenal, Manchester United, or Tottenham. It will be intriguing to see which club secures his signature if he leaves Crystal Palace next year.

Arsenal Eyeing Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo
RMC Sport reports that Arsenal could strengthen their attack with one of the Premier League’s in-form wingers this season.
The Gunners moved within 4 points of league leaders Liverpool after a 2-1 comeback win over Tottenham at the Emirates.
Arne Slot’s side has a game in hand over Arsenal, and Mikel Arteta’s team must keep winning to have any chance of catching Liverpool for the title.
Arsenal had a strong attacking display against Spurs last night but could have won the derby by a larger margin if they had taken advantage of key chances.
Arteta needs another quality signing in attack, and RMC Sport reports that Arsenal are interested in recruiting Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford this winter.
Brentford are expecting bids in the second half of the transfer window, with the winger valued at £42 million by Transfermarkt. However, the Bees are likely to hold out for a higher fee.
Difficult deal
Arsenal are lacking quality in the final third, with Bukayo Saka out for another two months, leaving a significant gap to fill on the right wing.
Gabriel Jesus recently hit a purple patch in front of goal, but he’s now sidelined for the rest of the season after a serious knee injury in the FA Cup 3rd round.
Additionally, Ethan Nwaneri is out with a muscle injury and may not be available for first-team action until at least February.
Mbeumo would be a fantastic addition for Arsenal, enhancing their creativity and goalscoring threat on the right flank.
The Cameroonian has 13 goals and 4 assists this season, excelling in dribbling, duel-winning, and contributing to ball recoveries with his hard work.
Mbeumo, described as ‘unplayable’ by Brentford manager Thomas Frank, would be ideal cover for Saka. However, Brentford may be reluctant to sell midway through the season.
The Bees could demand over £70 million for the attacker, aiming to capitalize on Arsenal’s urgent need for a right winger.

West Ham and Tottenham Battle for Fikayo Tomori
West Ham and Tottenham are reportedly competing to sign AC Milan defender Fikayo Tomori, according to Caught Offside.
After rising through Chelsea’s youth system, the 27-year-old made his senior debut in 2016. Struggling to secure a starting spot, he had multiple loan spells before joining AC Milan permanently in 2021.
Since moving to San Siro, the Englishman has become a key player for AC Milan, helping them win the Scudetto in the 2021/22 season.
Caught Offside claims West Ham have identified Tomori as a key target to strengthen their defence. They aim to give new manager Graham Potter the tools to turn around a challenging season after a tough first half under Julen Lopetegui.
Tomori is valued at £19m by Transfermarkt and has a contract until 2027 at Milan, putting the club in a strong position to demand a significant fee for his departure.
Battle
The report states that West Ham aren’t the only club interested in the former Chelsea star, with Tottenham, Newcastle United, and Aston Villa also eyeing a move for him.
Milan’s new manager, Sergio Conceicao, is reluctant to lose one of his key players, so West Ham or Tottenham will need to make a strong offer to convince the club to sell.
After spending several years in Italy, Tomori may be tempted by the chance to return to his homeland and showcase his talents in the Premier League.
Tomori is quick, strong, good in the air, comfortable with the ball, and has excellent game-reading abilities. At the prime stage of his career, he would be a smart acquisition for either West Ham or Tottenham if they sign him.
It will be interesting to see if the North London or East London club eventually go head-to-head to sign the Englishman, either in January or next summer.
