The Crystal Palace player is among the most challenging players in Europe right now.

Crystal Palace would like to extend the contract of 25-year-old Eberechi Eze, as he is currently among the most exciting offensive midfielders in the league. He ranks high in stats for both shots and dribbles, which characterizes his playing style very well. He is a challenging and energetic attacking player who takes a lot of shots and is good at creating chances for his teammates. In fact, Erling Haaland is the only player who has had more shots than Eze so far this season.

Players with most shots in Premier League: 
◎ Erling Haaland (31)
◎ Eberechi Eze (26)
◎ Marcus Rashford (26) 

Something that characterizes Eze as a player is his incredibly challenging style of play. Even though he is an attacking midfielder, he likes to challenge his direct opponent, and it must be said that he has succeeded well in this aspect this season. Currently, he is the player in Europe with the most successful dribbles.

Players with most successful dribbles in Europe’s top leagues: 
◎ Eberechi Eze (25)
◎ Leroy Sane (22)
◎ Rayan Cherki (21)
◎ Alphonso Davies (19)
◎ Savio (18) 

Eze was on the radar of several top clubs last summer, and it is publicly known that Manchester City was interested in the player but ultimately chose to sign Mathias Nunes from Wolverhampton. Areas where Eze can improve include his passing game, and he needs to become more decisive in matches considering the stats he produces; there is simply not enough end product in terms of goals or assists.

Eze in Premier League 2023/24: 
◎ 6 games
◎ 1 goal
◎ 0 assists 
◎ 16 chances created 

Last season, he delivered 10 goals and 4 assists in the Premier League, impressive figures for a player at Crystal Palace. His stats suggest that he could achieve a similar number of goals/assists this season, so it must be a focus area for both the club and the player to optimize this throughout the season.
