Arsenal face a transfer battle with Tottenham Hotspur over a move for Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze.

Mikel Arteta is still looking to add another attacking signing to his ranks before the window closes and Arsenal are expected to bid for Eze before the September 1st deadline.

However, Tottenham Hotspur have also entered the race for Eze after James Maddison suffered an ACL injury during their pre-season friendly clash with Newcastle United.

The North London rivals are now set to go head to head for the England international and Arsenal supporters have made it clear what they think about the situation.

Arsenal fans react to Spurs transfer talks with Eberechi Eze

Eze’s ‘dream’ is to play for Arsenal but it appears that the Gunners are now in a real scrap to sign the 27-year-old.

Arsenal supporters have taken to X to voice their opinions over potentially losing out on one of the club’s top targets to their North London neighbours.

In reaction to Spurs holding talks over Eze, one fan wrote: “Arsenal are not really serious about winning a major title.”

Another fan wrote: “I’m giving Arsenal the benefit of the doubt right now, but if we get to the end of the window and haven’t bought in at least one of Eze, Leao, or Rodrygo, then some serious questions must be asked.”

However, one Gunners supporter is of the opinion that interest from Spurs could be a positive, they wrote: “This could be good for Arsenal might actually speed us up if we’re actually serious.”

Tottenham Hotspur move for Eberechi Eze could accelerate Arsenal bid

Arsenal are relying on a number of player sales before they add any further signings to their squad but news of interest from Spurs could accelerate those plans.

Galatasaray are interested in Leandro Trossard and the likes of Fabio Vieira and Oleksandr Zinchenko are also attracting interest.

The Gunners were hoping to negotiate a fee with Crystal Palace lower than Eze’s £68m release clause, but that could now be difficult with interest in the England international rife.

If Andrea Berta is to pull off one last transfer trick in this window, he will now have to move quickly and decisively in his pursuit of Eberechi Eze.
