Chelsea linked with surprise Eriksen move

Chelsea would be interested in a deal to sign Christian Eriksen from Tottenham, according to reports.

AS claim that Chelsea and Barcelona will rival Real Madrid for the Dane, with the player looking increasingly likely to leave Spurs in the near future.

The player’s long-term future remains up in the air, with the midfield maestro stalling on a new contract at the club.

Madrid have been long-term admirers, but it seems that Chelsea and Barcelona have been alerted by his potential availability.

The latter are said to be huge admirers of the player, with the Catalan side looking to bolster their midfield options.

Eriksen’s current deal with the Premier League side runs until 2020 and you can imagine that if Spurs are forced into selling him, they would much prefer to send him to Spain than see the midfielder join a local rival.

Given the tense rivalry that has emerged between the two London sides in recent years, it would be a tough deal for Chelsea to try and negotiate.
