The ex-United player was speaking on the recent episode of the UTD Podcast – available now on the United App – and heaped praise on Erik ten Hag’s second signing.
“We’ve been missing some creativity, this guy has got creativity,” said Fortune. “Whoever’s playing up front needs to make the run, he will find you.

Eriksen joined the Reds on a free transfer on Friday after his contract with Brentford had expired at the end of last season.
