Eberechi Eze has already dropped wordless Tottenham transfer hint

Tottenham will be looking to add strength in depth to their squad this summer as they prepare for the 2025/26 season.

After winning the Europa League and ending their 17-year trophy drought, Spurs will play in the UEFA Champions League next season as well as working to improve their dismal 17th-place finish in the Premier League this year.

Who will be in charge of the team for the start of the new campaign is anyone’s guess right now, however, with continued confusion over Ange Postecoglou’s place at the helm.

The Australian went on holiday straight after the season ended, with no meeting with chairman Daniel Levy over his future until he returns.

Behind the scenes, however, Tottenham will be keen to get moving with their transfer business. The summer transfer window opens on Sunday, although it is only open for ten days, ebfore then opening fully on June 16.

The extra time is to alllow clubs taking part in the Club World Cup to bring new players in ahead of the tournament starting.

Spurs have been linked with a number of players already this summer and chief among them is Eberechi Eze. The Crystal Palace star has been on Spurs’ radar for some time and Tottenham were keen to sign him last summer but could not get a deal done, with the Eagles loathe to lose him and Michael Olise, who ended up making the move to Bayern Munich.

Eze showed Spurs exactly what they would be getting with a masterclass against the Lilywhites towards the end of the season. Palace won 2-0 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with Eze bagging both of the goals on the day.

He ended the season in style, scoring the only goal at Wembley that won Palace the FA Cup against Manchester City – their first ever piece of silverware.

He would be an excellent addition to the Spurs squad and there are suggestions he would be open to a move. And the player himself dropped something of a wordless hint ahead of that game with Spurs in May.

Signing autographs outside the stadium, a Spurs fan asked Eze “can you come to Spurs” as he signed a programme. Eze gave a wry smile before looking at the woman out of the corner of his eye, saying nothing before walking away.

It could be construed as a bit of a hint, particularly after Eze could be seen laughing after scoring the opener against Tottenham later on that day too.
