Despite undergoing something of a revival in form for Manchester United this season, Christian Eriksen may now be playing to attract potential suitors ahead of his 2025 release.
Indeed, the experienced Dane is poised to depart Old Trafford next June when his terms officially expire with the club.
That’s because, according to Fabrizio Romano, the Red Devils have not initiated talks with Eriksen regarding a potential extension, meaning ‘it’s likely’ he will bid the side farewell upon the culmination of the 2024/2025 campaign.
Yet, the news is unlikely to come as much of a surprise to supporters. While the midfielder has indeed proven to be a dependable figure when called upon this term, he’s now 32 years old and is far past the peak witnessed during his Tottenham Hotspur tenure – a time when United would’ve been better going all-out for his signature.
Having just made his seventh start in all competitions, Eriksen is already halfway to equalling his total starts from the entirety of 2023/2024 – a campaign in which he was forced to settle for a significantly reduced role when Kobbie Mainoo broke through into the first-team setup.
