Eberechi Eze joined Arsenal in August 2025. Arsenal completed the signing from Crystal Palace with a deal worth £60 million plus potential add-ons, announced officially on August 23, 2025. Eze signed a four-year contract with an option for a fifth year and took the No. 10 shirt at Arsenal. The transfer came after Arsenal hijacked a move for Eze that was close to completion with their North London rivals Tottenham Hotspur. He has already been presented with the club and was welcomed by fans ahead of a match against Leeds. The signing was partly influenced by an injury to Arsenal's Kai Havertz and Eze's emotional ties as a lifelong Arsenal fan and former youth player at the club.
