“Why Manchester City Is Interested in Eberechi Eze: Journalist Toby Cudworth Explains”
In a recent episode of the Talking Transfers podcast, journalist Toby Cudworth shed light on Manchester City’s interest in Crystal Palace midfielder Eberechi Eze. Who has recently emerged as a target for the club. Cudworth pointed out the qualities that have drawn City’s attention to the 25-year-old player.
According to Cudworth, Eze has been in exceptional form over the past six months. Particularly since Patrick Vieira took over as Crystal Palace manager. He described Eze as Palace’s standout performer during this period.
Moreover, Eze’s ability to dictate the tempo of games, control proceedings. And contribute to both attack and defense has caught the eye of Pep Guardiola and Manchester City. Cudworth drew a parallel between Eze’s playing style and that of City’s star midfielder, Kevin De Bruyne. He emphasized that City sees Eze as a player capable of influencing matches in a manner similar to De Bruyne. Making him an attractive option for the club.
Manchester city and their gameplan for their future
Moreover, Eze’s statistics from the previous season underscore his effectiveness in creating scoring opportunities and driving the attack. He led Palace in goal-creating actions (16) and successful take-ons (71) in the Premier League. These numbers highlight Eze’s ability to make things happen in an attacking sense.
However, given De Bruyne’s status as City’s chief playmaker, with the most goal-creating actions (31) among City players in the previous Premier League campaign, it’s clear why Guardiola and City value players like Eze who possess creativity and the ability to shape matches.
In conclusion, Eze’s potential acquisition by Manchester City would be an exciting prospect for the club. His style of play and creative abilities align with City’s ambitions, making him a valuable addition if a deal can be reached with Crystal Palace.
