According to The Athletic, Ajax is eager to bring Christian Eriksen back, with the midfielder having just one year left on his Manchester United contract. However, Ajax needs to resolve its financial situation before making any new acquisitions, potentially requiring them to sell players to balance their finances, which could complicate the transfer.
Manchester United is reportedly open to selling Eriksen this summer, with a transfer fee of at least £5 million ($6.51 million) being demanded for the 32-year-old. Last season, Eriksen struggled for a regular starting spot, making only 12 Premier League starts and 28 appearances across all competitions. He seems to be out of favor with manager Erik ten Hag, which has led Ajax to consider re-signing him, where he first made his mark.
Despite the interest from Ajax, Eriksen has addressed speculation about his future, stating his focus remains on his current contract with United. In a recent pre-season interview, Eriksen said, “I have one year left, so I am a United player. I haven’t been told to leave or that there’s an extension coming. My family is happy in Manchester, and United is a nice club. I feel good and in a good place, both personally and in terms of my fit with the team.”
However, Eriksen’s future at United is uncertain. He was an unused substitute in the Premier League opener against Fulham, a 1-0 win for the Red Devils, further fueling speculation about his role under ten Hag. With competition in United’s midfield and the potential addition of Manuel Ugarte, Eriksen might struggle to secure regular playing time, making a move away a likely option.
