Premier League side Crystal Palace have reportedly said the club will only entertain offers starting from £60 million before letting go of star players Eberechi Eze, 25, and 22-year-old Michael Olise, according to the BBC.

Palace are already anticipating attempts from top clubs to poach for the two players in the upcoming summer transfer window and are preparing for that possibility by placing a huge minimum £60 million price tag to sell any of them.

Both players, who are still eligible to represent Nigeria’s Super Eagles at international level, signed long-term contracts with Palace this season, giving the Eagles leverage during any sale negotiations.

Neither of them has a release clause in their new contract, as clubs must negotiate a price with Palace to secure the duo’s services.

Any deal to sign either player will largely depend on them pushing for a move to a bigger club or Palace receiving tempting offers, which could prompt them to want to cash in.

During the last summer transfer window, Chelsea tried to sign Olise for a fee in the region of £35 million but were unsuccessful after the Blues thought they had activated the release clause of the player.

Also, Manchester City showed interest in signing Eze but signed Matheus Nunes from Wolves instead.
