Relevant bit...

Crystal Palace have endured a whole summer of uncertainty over their two best players, Eberechi Eze and Marc Guehi.

But with the transfer window now entering its final fortnight, outcomes — one way or the other — are fast approaching and the impact will extend far beyond the gates of Selhurst Park.

Tottenham Hotspur find themselves in a one-horse race for Eze, and while no agreement was reached after further talks on Monday, conversations continue, and there remains a good chance the move will happen.

Palace have been exploring possible replacements for some time, and The Athletic revealed last weekend that they had established contact with Leicester City regarding Bilal El Khannouss. A bid also went in for Christos Tzolis of Club Brugge, who are determined to keep their forward.

Another player targeted by Palace is Wolverhampton Wanderers attacker Hwang Hee-chan. This would not be to fill Eze’s void, but rather to provide depth up front — especially in Eddie Nketiah’s injury-enforced absence.

There is no deal in place for Hwang, but Palace are speaking to their Premier League counterparts and aim to strike a compromise.

PLUS

What positions/players are they still looking at?​

Spurs are hoping to agree a deal with Crystal Palace for Eze.

The 27-year-old would bring the kind of guile and flair Tottenham lack without Maddison, and could help give their attack the kind of aura it often lacked last season.

Spurs also still have an interest in Manchester City’s Brazilian winger Savinho, as reported by The Athletic last week.

Just pay the money for savinho! Not often we get an opportunity like this. A player city don't really want to sell, a very talented play who actually wants to leave city and join spurs.

We don't get these chances very often, normally bigger and better clubs would slap us down or the player would want a different team but not in this case.

Call me cynical, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Citeh have been dicking us around on Savinho and have always had no intention of selling to us.

People with money don’t like to be told no, and refusing to bend over and sell them Kane must surely have rankled!

The only way they sell him to us is if we pay stupidly over the top.

I was just reading on blue moon that a CEO at Citeh is blocking the move. How much of this is a desire to get more out of Levy, who knows. Apparently Pep is willing to sell, the fans want Rodrygo so are happy to sell, but someone behind the scenes is pushing back.
 
85% certainty for Eze happening is a positive for me, I had it at 60-40....lbh Palace don't really want to sell him or Guehi and the latter is more likely simply because he will go for nothing next year.

Difficult to trawl through all the BS and draw an accurate conclusion either way atm.
