The closer we edge towards January, the more you are going to hear about Italian clubs being interested in Christian Eriksen.

That’s just the way the world works, unfortunately for Tottenham fans, as more limited funds means the prospect of a free transfer has set tails wagging in southern Europe.

Gazzetta dello Sport state there could be a battle between Inter and Juventus for the Denmark international, but a lot would rest on Manchester United.

It’s stated Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side ‘seem ready to do something crazy’ to acquire the playmaker, but should they resist the urge, then that’s when the Italian duo would swoop in.

Gazzetta claim both are ‘dreaming of the great free transfer in July’, especially since Eriksen has ‘no intention of renewing with Tottenham’, which can be seen from how Mauricio Pochettino is using him these days (seven starts from 12 in the Premier League).

Beyond that, there isn’t much more information, since we’re not in January and no official approach can be made, but you can rest assured that should Eriksen still be without a future destination in a month or so, this story will go into overdrive.
