'A creative and explosive talent' - Eze signs for Arsenal

Arsenal have completed the signing of England forward Eberechi Eze from Crystal Palace.

The Gunners agreed a deal worth £60m, including £8m in add-ons, for the 27-year-old to become their seventh summer signing.

Eze had been one of Tottenham's prime targets this summer and Spurs had agreed terms with both Palace and Eze.

But Spurs' north London rivals then made a move for Eze on Wednesday and the boyhood Arsenal fan chose to rejoin the Gunners having started his youth career with the club.

A relaxed Eze, wearing an Arsenal shirt and jeans, sauntered out to a rapturous reception from fans before the match against Leeds.
