Overview

• Arsenal and Crystal Palace have reportedly agreed a €63.5 million package for Eberechi Eze, with €34.5 million due upfront and the remainder payable in instalments.
• Stuttgart’s talks to sign Fabio Vieira—enabled by Enzo Millot’s £25.9 million switch to Al Ahli—are central to freeing funds and squad space for the Eze deal.
• Crystal Palace co-owner Steve Parish has declined to rule out Eze’s departure while Arsenal have already contacted his representatives, signaling mutual openness.
• Liverpool’s pursuit of Marc Guehi could give Palace added bargaining power and potentially slow Chelsea’s bid to secure Eze.
• Mikel Arteta has emphasized the importance of balancing nearly £200 million spent on six new signings with key outbound moves to satisfy Financial Fair Play before September’s deadline.
