Crystal Palace, Eberechi Eze
Digest more
A pair of trophy-toting Londoners meet Sunday when Chelsea welcome Crystal Palace to Stamford Bridge. The hosts won the Club World Cup this summer, giving manager Enzo Maresca and all of Chelsea’s supporters reason to believe their team could be back in competition for a Premier League title.
Crystal Palace could be without Eberechi Eze for their Premier League opener against Chelsea due to transfer speculation, according to reports.
Tottenham and Crystal Palace are currently in discussions over a fee for Eberechi Eze, but as things stand there is no agreement yet. There are one or two complications in that Palace will only sanction the deal if they can get one or two forwards across the line first.
