Man United are believed to be ready to part ways christian Eriksen in January as a veteran star is not part of Ruben Amorim’s plans at Old Trafford.
This is according to Florian Plettenberg from Sky Germanywhich reports that the Manchester club would be willing to sell the midfielder as early as January if a suitable offer comes in for the 32-year-old.
Eriksen is out of contract at the end of the season and the upcoming transfer window is Man United’s last chance to splash the cash for the Danish star.
The former Tottenham player played a big role at Old Trafford under Erik ten Hag, but since Amorim’s arrival in November, the veteran star’s minutes have dwindled.
During the Portuguese manager’s first game in charge against Ipswich, Eriksen played 68 minutes, but the Denmark international has not featured since. Before that, the 32-year-old featured in 13 games for Man United, scoring four goals and assisting three more.
Where will Christian Eriksen end up if he leaves Man United?
Eriksen has been linked with a move to Celtic in recent weeks although the Scottish leaders are unlikely to be able to match the Danish star’s current wages at Man United.
Real Betis explored a move for Eriksen in the summerbut the La Liga side never made an official move for the 32-year-old, as the Spanish club would go on to sign Tottenham’s Giovani Lo Celso.
It remains to be seen who approaches Man United for the midfielder now that his position at the club has been made clear. The Danish star can still offer a lot to a team in one of Europe’s big five leagues, although Italy are ruled out by their rules regarding the Premier League player’s chest implantable cardioverter defibrillator.
