Tottenham are close to agreeing a deal for Eberechi Eze which will add to Thomas Frank’s joy after a 3-0 win over Burnley.



The Lilywhites comfortably dispatched of the Clarets courtesy of a brace from the “moody” Richarlison and a solo goal from Brennan Johnson.

Tottenham cruised to a 3-0 victory over Burnley, yet Scott Parker’s side will feel aggrieved that they were not awarded a penalty after Jaidon Anthony was brought down by Pedro Porro.

To add to the Dane’s delight, it also looks like Spurs are edging ever closer to landing the signature of Eze from Crystal Palace after significant interest.

According to an update from The Independent (5.29pm, 16 August), the Lilywhites are “close” to agreeing a deal for the Palace talisman’s services.

The deal would be worth over £55million and would be a major signing given the interest from Arsenal throughout the transfer window.

Football Insider verdict

After the long-term injuries to Maddison and Dejand Kulusevski, the north London side have been crying out for a creative hub to take up the reigns in the number 10 position.

Pape Sarr and Lucas Bergvall have both filled in but are not natural playmakers, highlighting the desperate need for the Danish manager to fill the void.

Eze brings a golden touch, set-piece expertise and a winning feeling after securing both the FA Cup and the Community Shield.

Moreover, swapping south for north London seems to be a sensible move for the 27-year-old to keep raising his game in a city that he is familiar with.

The Englishman should take great heed from how Frank has got the best out of attacking midfielders, including Mikkel Damsgaard who flourished last season after struggling in England.

Furthermore, the signing of the Eagle should take off instantly due to his Premier League experience which sometimes money cannot buy.
