EBERECHI EZE'S former boss thinks his £67.5million move to Arsenal can help cement him as one of England's key players at the 2026 World Cup.

Mark Warburton coached Eze at Queens Park Rangers before his move to the Premier League with Crystal Palace.

The 27-year-old has now made the switch to the Emirates, returning to the club where he played as a boy.

Eze enjoyed his best season at QPR under Warburton, scoring 14 goals in the 2019-20 campaign, and the former West Ham assistant manager says he knew the attacking midfielder had a special talent after taking over at Loftus Road.

“He was one of those players, Ebere, who every single day would do something that just caught your attention” said Warburton (circle).
