Christian Eriksen has revealed why he joined Manchester United amid links to a few other clubs, including Leicester City. The Foxes were said to be interested in the Denmark international, but the free agent has moved to Old Trafford to play under Erik ten Hag on a three-year contract.
Christian Eriksen said: “Manchester United is a special club and I cannot wait to get started. I have had the privilege of playing at Old Trafford many times but to do it in the red shirt of United will be an amazing feeling. I have seen Erik’s work at Ajax and know the level of detail and preparation that he and his staff put into every day. It is clear that he is a fantastic coach. Having spoken with him and learned more about his vision and the way he wants the team to play, I am even more excited for the future. I still have major ambitions in the game, there is a huge amount that I know I can achieve, and this is the perfect place to continue my journey.”
