Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta, has revealed that Eberechi Eze called him to ask if the club was still interested in signing him from Crystal Palace amid an offer from their North London rivals Tottenham.
Eze was presented to a buzzing Emirates Stadium crowd ahead of the Gunners 5-0 win over Leeds United on Saturday evening.
The 27-year-old will cost Arsenal up to 67.5 million and he has been handed the no.10 shirt.
