Tottenham will have to up Eriksen's wages if they are to keep him beyond the summer

Real Madrid is interested in Christian Eriksen

Real Madrid are being heavily linked with Christian Eriksen and Spurs will need to raise his wages if they are to make him stay at London, according to Express Sport.

Daniel Levy will have to offer the Dane a wage package close to £150,000 per week if they are to have any chance of keeping him beyond this summer.

Eriksen's current contract with Spurs will run out in 2020. The 26-year-old currently earns £75,000 per week and stands the chance to get a huge raise if he signs for Real Madrid at the end of this season. It looks like Spurs are playing their cards too close to their chest.
