Yesterday was a bad day for Tottenham Hotspur, but while the club failed in its bid to secure Crystal Palace attacking midfielder Eberechi Eze after losing out to an Arsenal gazumping, the club is already briefing that it has other irons in the fire.

Arsenal have booked Eberechi Eze in for a medical on Friday, assuming he comes through his final Palace appearance unscathed. So who will Tottenham turn to?

Eberechi Eze is on the cusp of joining Arsenal from Crystal Palace, and one Arsenal legend has weighed in on the impact of the transfer.

Eberechi Eze is close to joining Tottenham after Arsenal backed out of the race. The England international is expected to start for Crystal Palace in the first leg of the UEFA Conference League play-off against Fredrikstad on Thursday before sealing a £60m move to Spurs.

Hotspur are exploring a potential move for Chelsea forward Christopher Nkunku as they seek to bolster their attacking options, sources reveal.

Newcastle are under pressure to sign a new striker this summer. Callum Wilson was released following the expiration of his contract, but Eddie Howe’s side were forced to start the season without a recognised centre forward after Isak began his own protest over his desired move to Liverpool.

Gabriel Agbonlahor says Richarlison may now be unhappy at Tottenham after reports he was set to be used in a swap deal.

Arsenal have beaten Tottenham to Eberechi Eze, but a move billed as a hijacking had actually been made long before Spurs struck a deal for the playmaker.
