The Journal

August 14, 2025

NEWCASTLE may have struggled to bring in new talent this summer, but club icon Alan Shearer does not think the Magpies should make a move for Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze.

- By CHRIS BURNS

Eze is a player in demand with Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur both reportedly battling it out for the £68million-rated Eagles' attacker. Former Newcastle manager Steve Bruce once expressed an admiration for the player but the club have not been linked with him this summer.

Shearer heaped praise on Eze when discussing the England star, but insisted Newcastle are well stocked in attack-minded midfielders and shouldn't consider a move for him.
