Christian Eriksen has said that he is interested in a move to Tottenham, the Daily Star reports.
Eriksen has been heavily linked with a move to the Premier League this summer and Tottenham now appear to be favourites to sign the Ajax midfielder, who only has one year left on his contract at the Dutch giants.
Liverpool are also known to be interested in Eriksen but it seems that the player may prefer a move to Tottenham as it would enable him to link up with former Ajax team mate Jan Vertonghen.
“Tottenham are a great club,” he told BT.dk.
“I know this because of Vertonghen. It is good club which is interesting.
“But there has not been anything yet.”
Ajax coach Fran De Boer knows that he will almost certainly lose Eriksen this summer due to the situation regarding his contract.
The Dutch club will need to sell the midfielder this summer or risk losing him for free next year and could accept a bid of £15 million, which Spurs could be set to offer.
Eriksen hopes to have his future sorted out within the next two weeks, so speculation about his future will probably intensify, with AC Milan also known to considering making a move following their failure to sign CSKA Moscow midfielder Keisuke Honda.
