Journalist Reveals Unusual Gesture by Levy in Pursuit of Attacker With 45 Goals This Summer

As Tottenham Hotspur gears up for the upcoming transfer window, one player firmly on their radar is Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze.

Manager Ange Postecoglou is keen to bring the Englishman to North London, prompting the club to initiate efforts to secure his signature.In a recent development, Times journalist Tom Allnutt disclosed an intriguing detail: Eze and his entourage were granted an entire box at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium during last Saturday’s London derby between Spurs and Palace.Despite Eze’s impressive performance, which included a stunning free-kick goal for Palace, Spurs staged a remarkable comeback to secure a 3-1 victory.After the match, several Tottenham players, including Son, Oliver Skipp, and Brandon Austin, engaged in friendly banter with Eze, further fueling speculation of a potential move to Tottenham.Allnutt’s insights shed light on the unusual gesture of providing a box exclusively for Eze, his family, and agents by Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy.Speaking on The Tottenham Way podcast, Allnutt speculated on the significance of this gesture, suggesting it could indicate Tottenham’s efforts to woo Eze and his representatives.He said, “It was interesting to me that Eze and his entourage had basically a full box to themselves at Tottenham. I don’t know if that’s entirely normal for an opposition player to have a whole suite of their friends and family and presumably, a couple of agents. I know Eze belongs to Base who are an agency very connected with Spurs. But I did wonder if there was a bit of wooing going on there. I wonder if they gave Eze and his pack a very nice day out at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. I don’t know, maybe that’s just me contemplating.”Eze, 25, has been a standout performer for Palace, tallying 10 goals and 4 assists in 38 appearances last season in the Premier League. Despite injury setbacks this season, he has continued to make a significant impact with six goals and an assist in 18 appearances.With 45 goals and 27 assists in 247 senior career appearances, Eze presents an enticing prospect for Tottenham as they aim to strengthen their squad in the summer transfer window. All eyes will be on whether they can successfully lure the talented midfielder to Hotspur Way.
