Inter Milan slap £27m price-tag on Christian Eriksen just a year after signing him

Inter Milan will sell Christian Eriksen just a year after signing him – but only if they can make a £10million profit on the former Tottenham star in January.

The Denmark midfielder has endured a nightmare spell since leaving Spurs for the San Siro in a £17m deal during the last winter transfer window. 

And amid links to the likes of Manchester United, Arsenal and PSG, it is now claimed that Inter have set their asking price for the wantaway midfielder.

Tuttosport say that Inter chiefs want £27m for Eriksen, who signed a contract until the summer of 2024 upon his arrival at the Serie A giants.

The Italian publication go on to say that Eriksen’s six-minute cameo against Real Madrid in midweek, when he came on at the end of the game with Inter down to 10 men and trailing 2-0, was the ‘last humiliation’ for the ex-Ajax man.

The 28-year-old playmaker wants to leave the San Siro when the transfer window reopens and a return to the Premier League is among his options.

Inter boss Antonio Conte is happy to sign-off his departure, but is already eyeing potential replacements as he looks to get the season back on track.

Manchester United midfielder Fred, who has enjoyed a resurgence under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in recent weeks, is among Conte’s top targets.

PSG’s Leandro Paredes, Bayern Munich midfielder Corentin Tolisso and Arsenal star Granit Xhaka are also listed as options by Tuttosport.

Inter would reportedly consider a swap deal for any of their targets, but a straight cash deal for Eriksen will cost significantly more than the price they paid for him less than a year ago.

Earlier this week, Inter sporting director Giuseppe Marotta confirmed that Eriksen had already asked to leave the club.

Marotta told DAZN: ‘Conte responded in expansive fashion. We can’t keep a player who at the moment is asking to be sold.

‘We will make the right evaluations. At the moment he’s available and Conte is using him in a way that is respectful of the club.

‘Offers? At the moment they have yet to arrive. Should that change we will try to find the right combination.’
