Many interpreted that as a sign that the attacking midfielder has played his final game for the Eagles, with sources indicating that Tottenham are confident of getting a deal for Eze over the line.

All signs are positive for Tottenham in Eberechi Eze pursuit
It has been revealed that Eze has informed his England teammates that he expects to be a Tottenham player soon.
Additionally, over the last 24 hours, Palace have already started making moves for potential Eze replacements, which suggests that they expect to agree a deal with the North London side.
It thus appears that this deal is heading to a positive conclusion for Tottenham, but Spurs fans will be wary of rejoicing until the player is holding up a Lilywhite shirt, especially given the Morgan Gibbs-White fiasco earlier this summer.
