Chelsea’s pursuit of Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze has reportedly hit a major roadblock after the player made a surprising demand during negotiations. The request is said to have caught the Chelsea board completely off guard, casting serious doubt over the possibility of a deal being completed.
Eze’s stance is now seen as a major obstacle, with sources describing his demand as highly unreasonable. The move, which once looked promising, now appears unlikely to go through unless there’s a significant breakthrough in talks. For now, the Blues may be forced to look elsewhere — unless both parties can find common ground.
