Crystal Palace confirmed the signing of Nigeria-eligible midfielder Eberechi Eze on a five-year deal on Friday, August 28.

The England U21 international had his first training session as a player of Crystal Palace yesterday and met up with his new teammates for the first time.

According to the official website of Palace , Eze got his Eagles career off to a flying start by netting three goals in the space of twenty seconds during his first workout.

The 22-year-old could make his non-competitive debut for his new employer in Saturday afternoon's friendly against Charlton Athletic.

He earned himself a move to the Premier League after a breakout campaign for Queens Park Rangers with 14 goals and eight assists to his name in 46 appearances in the Championship.

It was a magnificent season from Eze, full of consistency as well as flair, so much so that it wasn’t only the Loftus Road faithful who were in awe of him but also opposition supporters.

London-born Eze is on the radar of the Nigeria Football Federation and manager Gernot Rohr with a view to a call-up to the Super Eagles ahead of the 2022 World Cup qualifiers.
