Eberechi Eze to START for Crystal Palace in UECL as Tottenham talks rumble on

The forward is keen to join Spurs but remains committed to the Eagles.

Eberechi Eze will start for Crystal Palace in their Conference League play-off clash on Thursday, despite ongoing transfer talks with Tottenham.

The Palace star was on show during Palace’s public training session earlier on Wednesday, and manager Oliver Glasner has confirmed Eze will start against Fredrikstad tomorrow night.

Spurs are in advanced talks to sign Eze but a deal is yet to be agreed with Palace. Eze is thought to be keen on a move to Spurs but he remains committed to Palace until a deal is reached.

Glasner has also confirmed Marc Guehi will start, with his future also uncertain amid interest from Liverpool.

The Eagles boss told reporters: “Most of you will be surprised that they will start again tomorrow. They are committed; they have a contract here.”

Spurs hope to wrap up a deal before the transfer window closes on September 1 as they target three new signings.

Playing in Europe for Palace would not make Eze ineligible for the Champions League.
