Christian Eriksen, a Denmark international who plays in the middle of the field, has reportedly reached an agreement in principle to join Manchester United on a free transfer. The 30-year-old player’s contract with Brentford, which was only for a limited time, expired earlier this month.
Since beinglet go by Serie A side Inter, the Dane was able to make his way back to the English Premier League when he signed with the Bees in the month of January 2022. After suffering a heart attack during the Euro 2020 tournament, he had to have an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) placed.
This caused him to be unable to play in the Italian league. It had been thought that Eriksen might returnto Thomas Frank’s team for the next season as well. Nevertheless, the allure of playing for the Red Devils has been too much for him to pass up.
Christian Eriksen’s contract with Manchester United
Eriksen’s representatives were thought to have demanded a significant amount of money from Brentford in order for their client to continue playing in the Premier League with the club. The British newspaper The Telegraphsaid that the Danish midfielder was seeking a weekly salary of £200,000 in addition to a signing bonus of £10 million.
That easily would have put him ahead of everyone else in terms of earnings for the Bees. However, despite rumors that linked him with his previous club Tottenham and even Chelsea, it was United who wereultimately successful in their pursuit of the midfield maestro. The medical exam for the Danish international player will take place within the next few days, and he has already agreed to a three-year agreement with United as a free agent.
