English Premier League side Crystal Palace have completed the signing of Nigerian born midfielder Eberechi Eze from Championship club Queens Park Rangers for a fee that could rise to £20m.

Eze, who has been on the radar of Crystal Palace all summer, scored 14 goals in 46 appearances in the Sky Bet Championship for QPR last season as he signed a five-year contract with the Premier League outfit.

Eze joined QPR in 2016 after being released by Millwall. He has been a revelation at Loftus Road and was voted Rangers’ player of the year last season.

The Super Eagles of Nigeria have courted Eze for a while now, and are still hoping the England U21 International can still ply his trade for the three-time Africa Cup of Nations winners.

Eze was our No. 6 pick among African Footballers most likely to make a move this summer.
