Eberechi Eze has picked where he wants to play next season amid claims Liverpool could hijack Arsenal's move and with two big hurdles in the Gunners' path.

Arsenal are working on a number of deals behind the scenes after finalising the capture of Martin Zubimendi and Crystal Palace's Eberechi Eze is emerging as a serious target

Eze has a release clause of £68million, with Palace determined to extract the full amount before sanctioning his exit. But Arsenal will be aiming to knock a lump sum off the transfer fee if they can get the Eagles to agree to a swap deal before the summer transfer window closes.
