Eberechi Eze is going from strength to strength at QPR with Premier League duo Crystal Palace and Brighton keeping a close eye on Loftus Road.

Queens Park Rangers knew it was only a matter of time before the dazzling young talent Eberechi Eze started to play his way onto Premier League wish-lists.

According to The Mirror (19^th March, page 47), scouts from top flight clubs have been flocking to Loftus Road in recent weeks with the 19-year-old earning rave reviews after returning from a loan spell at Wycombe Wanderers in January.

So with Eze’s contract currently due to expire in the summer of 2019, QPR are trying to act fast and tie arguably their most exciting young talent down to a more iron-cast deal.

And this looks like a good call – especially with Get West London claiming that both Crystal Palace and Brighton sent scouts to watch the teenager during Monday’s 4-1 thrashing of Norwich City at Loftus Road.

The Premier League rivals would have been very impressed with the Greenwich-born Nigerian too. Eze scored his second goal for QPR against Daniel Farke’s side to cap another superb performance from a player who appears to have all the natural ability to go right to the very top.

And the reaction from QPR fans towards Eze’s display immediately shows why Palace and Brighton should keep a close eye on him for the rest of this season.

This has been a great performance from #QPR, Smith putting in his best shift in a Rangers shirt and Eze purring his way round the pitch like a player twice his age. Quality.
