Oh, Christian Eriksen, what on earth will happen to you going forward?
This is a question many have already tried to answer, yet nothing that’s been predicted has happened so far, and the Denmark international continues to play for Tottenham under Mauricio Pochettino.
Like Spurs, he’s struggled a bit to find form this season, but that hasn’t stopped the rumours, since his contract in London is due to expire in the summer.
And, as nature intended it, whenever a free transfer is a possibility, Italian clubs start circling.
For once, however, it isn’t Juventus but Inter who are interested in bringing the 27-year-old to southern Europe, even if they know it might be complicated.
Gazzetta dello Sport explain Antonio Conte’s side are ‘following the evolution of the situation with great attention’, since everything indicates Eriksen and Tottenham will part ways at the end of the season.
They are aware the likes of Real Madrid and Manchester United are also hovering, but should nothing happen in January from either of those clubs, Inter would ‘study the right offer to convince him’ to choose Italian has his next language to learn.
Inter do have a plan B in Cagliari’s Nahitan Nández should the Eriksen option not work out, but it seems the Dane is their dream free transfer for next summer to add more creativity to an already impressive attack.
