Tottenham fans buzzing as Eze reacts to Crystal Palace transfer question
Eberechi Eze notched a brace for Crystal Palace as the Eagles beat Tottenham 2-0 in the Premier League on Sunday.
Ange Postecoglou’s men have now suffered 20 Premier League defeats, outlining just how poor the North Londoners have been in the top-flight this term.
Tottenham have now slipped to 17th, as rivals West Ham defeated Manchester United 2-0 on Sunday (11 May), courtesy of goals from Jarrod Bowen and Tomas Soucek.
Spurs already have their minds set on their Europa League final clash with Man United later this month, but their home defeat to Crystal Palace undoubtedly arrived as a disappointment.
Tottenham fans buzzing with Eze’s response as Spurs fan asks him about transfer speculation
While Eze was the star of the show for Palace in their victory over Postecoglou’s side, he has been linked with a move to North London.

The England international was filmed signing autographs at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium when a supporter asked him: “Can you come to Tottenham?”
Eze grinned at the question, prompting those around him to laugh and get excited in equal measure.
Meanwhile, Spurs fans on X now believe that the 26-year-old could be joining their club, with one user commenting: “He is just so Tottenham.”
Eze could be a top signing for Tottenham
Even though Spurs are currently set to finish fourth-bottom in the Premier League, the North Londoners can significantly bolster their chances of signing some of the top-flight’s most talented players, such as Eze, if they beat Man United in the Europa League final and secure Champions League football.
The 26-year-old has made 15 goal contributions for Palace in the Premier League this season, showing that he could be a real asset for Tottenham if he joins Postecoglou’s side.
Furthermore, the Eagles have successfully reached this season’s FA Cup final, and Eze has been central to their cup run with three goals and one assist in four appearances.
Tottenham’s lowly position in the Premier League demonstrates that they are in need of a rebuild this term, while capturing the England man’s signature could play a vital role in that.
Whether Postecoglou remains in North London or not, Eze would be a top-drawer addition for Spurs.
