Tottenham Hotspur have been embroiled in one of the biggest transfer sagas of the summer so far, will Christian Eriksen leave, or will he stay?
Real Madrid had been heavily linked with the Spurs playmaker, but reportedly dropped their interest in favour of pursuing Man United’s Paul Pogba (Express).
However, recent reports have indicated that Los Blancos may have revived their interest in the Tottenham man, as Eriksen’s agent apparently flew out to Spain to speak to Madrid representatives (Marca).
The 27-year-old has become one of the very best playmakers in world football since joining Spurs, even scoring eight and assisting 12 in what was deemed to be a below-par Prem season last time out.
He also scored two and assisted four more in Tottenham’s run to the Champions League final, where they lost to Liverpool by two goals to nil (WhoScored).
The Daily Star have now reported that there is a growing feeling that Eriksen will leave the club this summer, despite other claims stating that Tottenham are confident he will sign a new deal (Graeme Bailey).
Spurs Web Opinion:
Personally, I wanted to see Eriksen sold this summer. I think he has gone beyond the point of being able to recover at Tottenham after his comments, but I do not blame him and wish him all the best. In my view, Spurs would be strengthened by his departure, using the money to invest in one or two new players.
