Eze was born on June 29, 1998, in Greenwich, London, to Igbo Nigerian parents who immigrated to the UK. Eberechi Eze family supported his dream of becoming a footballer despite suffering from financial challenges. Additionally, Eze has a brother, Ikechi, who also pursued football but did not reach professional levels. Eberechi Eze age was just 8 when he joined his favourite club, Arsenal. Later, he was released by the club at the age of 13, which came as a setback for the young lad.
His hard work was visible at a very young age when he used to balance both school and the academy. He trained at various academies, some of which were famous, like Fulham, Reading, and Millwall. Unfortunately, all clubs rejected him. Despite multiple failures, Eberechi Eze family stood strong and backed the English player until he found a breakthrough moment in the year 2019, playing for Queens Park Rangers.
Eberechi Eze wife Naima Corbin, who is also known as Izuthe Mulatto married Eze in a private ceremony in the year 2022. The couple, who met as teenagers at John Roan School in Greenwich, London, began dating at 18 and went public with their relationship in 2019. Unlike other couples who are influenced by Western culture, Eberechi Eze Wife and the Arsenal midfielder decided to have an Igbo-themed wedding in June 2025 at The Manor in Bromley, London.
Naima Corbin decided to keep his life private which can be proved when she deleted his Instagram account. She is a nursing graduate who is an alumna of one of the prestigious colleges of the UK, King's College. Their relationship, built on a foundation of shared school days and mutual support, reflects a private yet strong bond, with Naima balancing her career in healthcare alongside Eze’s football journey.
This segment covers the major contributor to Eberechi Eze net worth, his salary. At Crystal Palace, Eberechi Eze salary was £5,200,000, which makes it £100,000/week. His contract with Crystal Palace, which he signed in the year 2023 till the year 2027, included a release clause of 60 million euros plus additional payments. As of August 2025 this contract is void as Arsenal have agreed to pay the release clause of the player. However, discussions over add-ons are still going on, but that is unlikely to disrupt the deal of Enerechi Eze and Arsenal. Given Arsenal’s status as one of the richest clubs in EPL and Eze’s rising profile, his new salary is likely higher, potentially exceeding £120,000 per week. His market value, estimated at €55 million, reflects his impact at Crystal Palace.
