Christian Eriksen (32), who has only one year left on his contract with Manchester United, said there is still no talk of renewing his contract. With Eriksen’s future unstable, Ajax, his former team, is hoping for a reunion.
Eriksen said in an interview with Danish media “Extravladette” on the 11th (Korea time), “There was no talk of re-signing. We have a year left on the contract, and we will be able to have another conversation if we change our position next year.” Eriksen can become an FA next summer and find a new team freely.
Manchester United, which is in its third year as coach of Erik ten Haach (54, the Netherlands), is struggling with various players and the future. In particular, there were many speculations about whether to accompany veteran midfielders. Eriksen, who entered the last year of his contract, was one of them. Last summer, Eriksen was connected to Ajax, Real Betis, Anderrecht and Galatasaray.
Amid rumors of a massive transfer, both Eriksen and Manchester United have refused to change and have decided to continue their companionship. Eriksen played in eight official matches and scored three goals and three assists. He has no offensive points in the league yet, but he displayed impressive performance by accumulating multiple offensive points in the English Football League (EFL) Carabao Cup and the UEFA Europa League (UEL). 메이저놀이터
However, the movement has become slower than in its heyday, and concerns have emerged as it has hardly escaped opposition pressure. Eriksen, who did not negotiate a renewal of his contract with Manchester United even though his contract was not far away, has resurfaced rumors of his return to Ajax, his former team. Ajax decided to offer Eriksen a long-term contract to help him finish his career here.
“Manchester United is not expected to offer Eriksen a new contract. There is a possibility that he will return to Ajax after the end of this season,” British media “The Sun” reported on the 12th (Korea time). “Ariksen intends to offer Eriksen a three-year contract, which will pave the way for him to finish his career. Eriksen was also interested in returning to Ajax.”
Eriksen, who left Ajax for Tottenham in 2013, is looking positively at returning to the Netherlands. In the meantime, Ajax took the lead in the recruitment campaign, and the U.S. and Saudi Arabian clubs also showed interest in Eriksen. However, he decided to play fully as a member of Manchester United until this season, even if he does not renew his contract.
Eriksen, the Danish national team, started his career at Ajax, played for Tottenham, Inter, and Brentford before joining Manchester United in the summer of 2022. He is a playmaker with outstanding creativity and vision, and is a midfielder who is good at solving games in the midfield and helping teammates. After joining Manchester United, he has won the EFL Carabao Cup and the English Football Association (FA) Cup once in the past two seasons.
