‘Futile for Spurs to try and keep Eriksen’ – Ardiles feels want-away Real Madrid target should be sold

The Tottenham legend believes that a playmaker who has been linked with a switch to Spain should be offloaded as he is no longer fully committed

Tottenham have been warned that trying to keep Christian Eriksen is “futile”, with club legend Ossie Ardiles calling on Mauricio Pochettino to part with a player being linked with Real Madrid.

The 27-year-old playmaker has been a key man for Spurs over recent years and he is considered to have become one of the finest creative influences in the Premier League, with his assist numbers proving to be a match for any of his rivals in the English top flight.
