No one's mentioned him. I think he would be perfect for Palace.
He's 25, he plays for the Nigerian national team (so perhaps Wilf could put in a good word), and we could probably get him for 2 million or something silly.
Basically, he has been playing for Empoli in the Serie A since the start of the season. I say "playing", he came as a free transfer from Benfica B this summer, and has only played once, as a substitute, for the last 25 minutes against Lecce. All I can say is that during those 25 minutes, Empoli didn't let any more goals in (the final score was 1-1). So he clearly did his job and prevented Lecce from winning in those final 25 mins.
Every other game he's been on the bench or not even in the squad. He's clearly surplus to requirements. But he's good. Clearly new coach Paolo Zenetti hasn't seen enough of him.
Clyne's injury and age, and Ward's age, means that we are vulnerable at right-back plus we need to build for the future. He'd probably have a great connection with Eze, as they both come from Nigerian parents, were not born in Nigeria and in fact have never lived there (Ebuehi was born in the Netherlands) and are of similar age. So Ebuehi would feel right at home.
The main reason for getting him I think is that since Empoli paid nothing for him and he isn't in their current plans, they would probably be okay with a loan deal this winter with an option to buy clause. It's win-win for them.
Transfermarkt values him at €1,400,000 (To view the link you have to Register or Login) which is nothing in this day and age. Empoli would probably sell him now for 2 mill! But I can see them being especially okay with a loan deal. We should get in there while he's under the radar!
He even sounds like a Palace player, doesn't he! Tyronne Efe Ebuehi. :-) Plus, the Nigerians are the Super Eagles, so he might just make our defence Super. :D
He has big match experience, playing at the World Cup
He seems a lovely chap, really bright and fluent English:
But what about his skills? Well, here's a 4-year old compilation of some of his great defences (and numerous attacks) from his time in the Dutch Eredivisie when he was just 20.
I think we can certainly say he could be a great asset, and we need a decent RB to take over from Clyne and Ward and who can fill that AWB void.
