EBERECHI EZE is interested in spearheading Thomas Frank’s Tottenham revolution.
New Spurs boss Frank wants to sign a new wideman this summer and Crystal Palace star Eze is a major target.
But the Dane faces competition for the England man’s services, as SunSport understands a few other clubs are keen.
Sources suggest that while it is not guaranteed Eze, 26, leaves Selhurst Park this summer, there is a very good chance it will happen.
And the prospect of playing for Spurs in the Champions League is one that appeals to the versatile winger.
Tottenham have been tracking Eze for years.
His stock has risen with every season since joining Palace from QPR five years ago, culminating with his FA Cup final-winning goal over Manchester City in May.
He also netted twice in Palace’s 2-0 win at Spurs seven days prior to that Wembley triumph.
Eze is believed to have a release clause of around £60million in his Eagles contract.
But insiders claim it comes with “complex” conditions involving how the fee is paid.
New Spurs boss Thomas Frank would love to sign a new winger this summer, especially if captain and Saudi Pro League target Son Heung-min leaves the club.
There is serious interest in Man Utd target Bryan Mbeumo, who scored 20 Premier League goals under Frank at Brentford last term, though the suggestion of a bid having been put in already has been played down.
Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo is also appreciated.
Whether Spurs, who turned Mathys Tel’s loan permanent for £30m earlier this month, would have the funds to buy both Mbeumo and Eze remains to be seen.
