The Guardian reported that due to potential transfer reasons, Crystal Palace considered not to allow Eze to play in the Premier League match with Chelsea.

-Affected by transfer negotiations, Eze may miss the first round of the league against Chelsea on Sunday, and coach Glasner is facing the choice problem at the attacking line. Tottenham is currently close to signing Eze for £55 million + floating terms.

In addition to Eze, Crystal Palace defender Guy may also leave the team, and Liverpool has negotiated on the England international. Gee has no intention of renewing the contract before it expires next year. Although Glasner said on Friday that Eze and Guy are expected to play against Chelsea, there is still uncertainty as to whether the two can play due to potential transfers.
