Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Christian Eriksen is said to be considering joining Manchester United before Thursday transfer deadline, and manager Mauricio Pochettino is now ready to sanction the sale of the Denmark international as he has reservations about keeping players entering the last year of their contract.
The 27-year-old has been linked with Real Madrid all summer, but a move has since fallen through, and despite not earlier keen on United, Eriksen is now open to linking up with Red Devils boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Spurs are already lining up a move for Sporting Lisbon’s Bruno Fernandes as his replacement, while Real Betis’ Giovani Lo Celso is also on their radar.
