Arsenal legend Ian Wright has said that God intervened to help the club snatch Eberechi Eze from Tottenham. This is coming after former Crystal Palace star pivoted to join the Gunners at the 11th hour.
According to him, Eze‘s move to Tottenham was basically done, and it took divine intervention for him to end up with the Gunners in the end.
He added that the emotional moment when Eberechi walked out of the Emirates Stadium tunnel was proof that he is meant to play in an Arsenal jersey.
“It [Eze to Spurs] was done. He’s very God fearing. I know a lot of people will turn round and go, ‘Here we go,’ but they genuinely believe it’s happened because it’s meant to happen. That’s why, when he walked out of the tunnel, he could feel it, he couldn’t believe it had happened.
The whole family are Arsenal. You can imagine what his family are going through, [thinking] ‘He’s going to playing for Tottenham.’ The pure happiness and joy of him being there [at Arsenal], you just feel like it’s going to work out for him. I want it to work out for him simply for that reason. It’s where he wants to be. It’s very rare you get where you want to be at the level he’s at. He got thrown out of there [Arsenal] at 13 and came back.”
WOW.
