Eberechi Eze has reportedly told friends which club he plans to join this summer amid interest from Arsenal, Chelsea and Bayern Munich.
The Crystal Palace star had an outstanding season under Oliver Glasner, netting 14 goals and providing 11 assists last term.
That included the goal in Palace's 1-0 FA Cup final triumph over Manchester City, sealing their first ever major honour.
Unsurprisingly the 27-year-old attacker has attracted interest from some of Europe's top clubs following such an impressive season.

Arsenal are seeking a versatile attacker, while Tottenham are supposedly keen to add him to Mohammed Kudus.
Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich, who signed Michael Olise from Palace last summer, are also reportedly interested.
But TBR football are now reporting that Eze has privately told friends he will be joining Arsenal this summer.
Why do Arsenal want to sign Eberechi Eze?
He is a Premier League proven, versatile attacker in the prime of his career.

That makes him an appealing option for Mikel Arteta, as he seeks to end Arsenal's wait for a league title.
He primarily operates on the inside-left channel, drifting inside to create chances and score goals.
If Eze made the move to north London, he is likely to start off the left-wing and then come inside from there.
But it is vital Arsenal's left-back provides width to the attack if Eze starts on the wing.

He may also line up in midfield and provide an alternative to Martin Odegaard, who struggled for form last season.
What else have Arsenal done this summer?
The Gunners have already been active in this summer's transfer window.

They started with the signings of goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga and midfielder Christian Norgaard, but they are both expected to be squad players.
Their top midfield target Martin Zubimendi joined from Real Sociedad for £60m and is expected to be the long-term replacement for Thomas Partey in midfield.
Arsenal have also signed the winger Noni Madueke from Chelsea for an initial fee of £48.5m.
The 23-year-old English international operates primarily off the right, but he was used on the left at Chelsea.

Given Bukayo Saka plays on the right, Madueke is more likely to rotate with Gabriel Martinelli on the left.
Arsenal are also set to finally sign a striker this summer.
They have agreed a £63.8m deal to sign Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting CP, who is set to arrive in London on Friday.
The Swede has been sensational in Portugal, scoring 97 goals in 102 games, although there is scepticism on how he will adapt to England.
