Arsenal has made a significant move by signing England forward Eberechi Eze from Crystal Palace. The transfer, completed on Saturday, reportedly cost an initial fee of 60 million pounds ($80 million).

It felt for some time that Eberechi Eze would be a Tottenham player eventually, when suddenly Eze was signing for Spurs' biggest rival Arsenal. So how did it all go down?

Arsenal pounced to beat north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur to a deal on Wednesday, matching the Spurs offer and persuading Eze to join them instead. Spurs hadn’t finalised their agreement due to Palace wanting Eze to play the first leg of a Conference League play-off, which he subsequently didn’t feature in anyway.
