"Everything there is for me to win, I want to win, and I'll do anything I possibly can to win the Premier League."

The words of a beaming Eberechi Eze, who has just enjoyed his best-ever season. His winning goal in the FA Cup final against Manchester City secured Crystal Palace their first major honor in a 163-year history, only fueling his appetite for more success.

May 17, 2025, marked an occasion he had already envisioned throughout his childhood, so while significant, it wasn't a shock.

"I've been dreaming of playing at that level and achieving such feats since I was young, so I've visualized it in my mind for years.

"For me, it's simply the realization of something that's been on my mind, something I've been praying for.

"I'm probably not as surprised as others, but I'm deeply grateful to have the opportunity to be in that position.

"To accomplish that and bring a trophy to south London is the greatest achievement; it's something the club has never had before. Being part of the squad that made it happen leaves me almost speechless."
