Overview
- Eze came off the bench to score in the 90th minute of England’s 2-0 win over Serbia at Wembley, finishing from the left channel after linking with Phil Foden.
- Post-match, he said guidance from Mikel Arteta and Thomas Tuchel has raised his intensity, decision-making and tactical clarity.
- Since joining from Crystal Palace, Eze has mostly operated centrally for Arsenal during Martin Ødegaard’s absence, delivering a league winner against Palace and three assists in all competitions.
- Analysts argue he may be most effective as an inverted left winger based on his Palace and England showings, with some coverage suggesting Arteta could revisit that option when Ødegaard returns.
- Reports differ on the transfer fee for his summer move (£60m or £68m), and the debate over his best position comes as Arsenal lead the Premier League and maintain a flawless Champions League record.
