4 players who could still leave the Premier League during the current transfer window

#2 Christian Eriksen

Christian Eriksen could still depart Tottenham this month

Although Tottenham have started 2019/20 strongly – picking up a victory over Aston Villa and a hard-earned point against Manchester City – boss Mauricio Pochettino has already bemoaned the fact that his squad doesn’t feel fully settled right now.

That’s not due to a lack of signings this time; it comes more because more than one of their players has been linked with a move abroad during the current transfer window.

One of them is Danish playmaker Christian Eriksen. Eriksen’s current deal at Tottenham is due to expire in the summer of 2020, and despite the best efforts of the club, it doesn’t appear that he’s willing to sign a new deal – despite reportedly being offered £200k per week.

It was back in June when Eriksen suggested he was ready for a “new challenge” in his career, but despite this angling for a move to either Barcelona or Real Madrid, neither club has shown a lot of interest.

Given the risks involved in keeping a player as his contract winds down – allowing them to move on a free transfer at the end of the deal – it’s likely that Tottenham supremo Daniel Levy has a decision to make regarding the Dane, and quickly.

Despite supposedly demanding over £100m for him initially, it’s more likely that Spurs will now want to do a cut-price deal for Eriksen in order to at least recoup some of their investment.

Atletico Madrid have been mooted as a possible destination for the Dane, perhaps for a fee of around £50m.
