Agreed, but to be fair, he won the bronze euro trophy. (ECL)
 
100k pw for Eze is not great, and if he’d forced a move, or run the previous contract down there’s very chance he’d have been earning double that the last two years and playing for a club also challenging for trophies. By all means have a release clause, but not the one lump clause. It takes all control out of Eze’s hands.

Agree to disagree I guess.
There's also the fact that he was coming back off a major injury in that moment to consider.

He could have been more aggressive about seeking a bigger club than Palace earlier in his career, I don't disagree with that.

And the general principle that not just the raw amount of the clause but the payment structure being relevant to the question is a good and important point.

I just tend to think Eze balanced the interests involved in a reasonable way, much better than Wilfried Zaha did signing five year deals with no release clause multiple times, for instance.

Mohammed Kudus is reported to have an 85M release clause. It can get worse.
