Arsenal have been dealt a blow in their pursuit of Eberechi Eze with Crystal Palace now demanding £35m up front, according to reports.

Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner has gone public with his stern view of the club’s transfer business thus far.

Arsenal and Crystal Palace have been involved in recent club-to-club talks over the transfer of Eberechi Eze. The Gunners have been heavily active in the market this summer and have already spent close to £200million on six new players.
