I don't think it's comical at all. Not all transfer decisions (by players) are purely financial. Most want to feel wanted and there are plenty of examples of players choosing clubs because they had a better experience with that club during the recruitment process. If the club is prepared to drive to your house to get the deal done, vs another who sends a text message, it can clearly make a big difference.
We also have Eze and Olise who both have Nigerian connections which might have helped.

I notice that while he has represented England U16, he has also played for the Netherlands at U15 level.

I think he's one we're going to have to see before judgement. We've had our share of Max Meyers over the years, or whatever his name was. I also don't want to turn this into a Meyer was good/bad thread, as it doesn't matter either way. He didn't make it with us and has gone. Hopefully not the way with this lad, and also Plange.

One possible word of caution is that Arsenal supposedly let him go as a youth player due to concerns over his work ethic. Sometimes that is the kick up the proverbial a player needs, but we shall see. Unlike Olise and Eze, I doubt he's been brought in as someone who will immediately challenge for a starting sport, but you never know. An exciting addition nonetheless.

I was surprised to see that by 19 he's played for Arsenal, Rangers, Derby and now Palace

Seems so much more hype about this guy than there was about Plange

Sounds from his comments like the club wants to keep him around this season.
If that is the case, I'd suspect that nails down Rak-Sakyi and Plange going out on loan. Given those two are both a year older (20 before Christmas) that would seem sensible to me as they're in a greater need of regular games. Meanwhile, we can get Ebiowei up too speed with our way of playing, correct any issues, have him dip in and out of first team minutes and a good U23 standard and can always send him out in January if that's the best outcome at the time.

Here’s a song for the new boy in the style of In the Jungle:
Ebiowei, Ebiowei, Ebiowei, Ebiowei
Ebiowei, Ebiowei, Ebiowei, Ebiowei
Ebiowei, Ebiowei, Ebiowei, Ebiowei
At the Palace, the mighty Palace, the Eagles sing tonight…
At the Palace, the mighty Palace, the Eagles sing tonight…
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee- Malcom Ebiowei! Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee- Malcolm Ediowei!!
