Dutch giants Ajax are reportedly the front-runners to land 32-year-old Manchester United playmaker in a Bosman move next summer.
According to a report by The Sun, Christian Eriksen is the subject of interest from Ajax. The Manchester United playmaker will likely part ways with the Premier League club as a free agent in the 2025 summer transfer window, with the Red Devils unlikely to hand him a new contract once his £150,000-a-week deal expires. The Eredivisie giants are ready to offer the Danish international a three-year contract.
Christian Eriksen and his story so far
Christian Eriksen has endured a topsy-turvy ride throughout his professional career. A native of Middelfart, the Dane spent most of his formative years in his homeland but graduated from the youth division at Ajax. He rose in prominence during his spell with Ajax and subsequently enjoyed fruitful spells with Tottenham Hotspur and Inter Milan.
However, Eriksen’s career nearly ended three years ago after he suffered a cardiac arrest during Denmark’s UEFA Euro 2020 opener against Finland. The 32-year-old resurrected his career after joining Brentford in January 2022, enjoying a short spell with the Bees that earned him a move to Manchester United in July 2022.
The Danish playmaker has been a dependable performer for Manchester United in the last two years but has not been a regular since his debut season. Eriksen has turned out 80 times thus far for Manchester United while chipping in with six goals and 16 assists. However, his spell with the Red Devils will end in the 2025 summer transfer window.
What next?
While Manchester United will not sanction a sale in the January transfer window, they will not retain Christian Eriksen beyond the summer transfer window. So, the veteran playmaker is scouring the market for a solution, with one of his former clubs emerging as a destination.
The report has pointed to Ajax being in the pole position to land Eriksen in a Bosman move in the 2025 summer transfer window. The Dutch giants are ready to offer the 32-year-old Dane a three-year contract and hope to see him end his career where it all began as a professional for him.
It will be interesting to see if Eriksen is ready to rejoin Ajax by signing a new three-year contract. The veteran midfielder will likely need to take a pay cut on his £150,000-a-week wages. However, the Danish playmaker’s spell with Manchester United will end in the 2025 summer transfer window.
