Manchester United is one of the big clubs in the English Premier League that has received high attention throughout the transfer market. The club based at Old Trafford has an incentive to improve the quality of their squad. The failure to finish in the top four does not want to continue in the long term.
The arrival of Erik ten Hag is expected to provide fresh air for the Red Devils senior squad. However, the Dutch manager faced a significant obstacle considering that the MU management often felt difficulties in the transfer market. Ten Hag also has his own views on squad building.
Goal reports that Erik ten Hag wants Manchester United’s management to bring in two new midfielders. Frenkie de Jong (FC Barcelona) and Christian Eriksen (free transfer) are the two names wanted. Richard Arnold, CEO of MU, has confirmed that de Jong is a player who is in the target of his club.
Barca also have the intention to release de Jong in order to get out of the financial crisis they are still facing. But obstacles were experienced in trying to bring in Christian Eriksen. Brentford, Eriksen’s team in the second half of the 2021/22 season, have made a contract offer.
Although Eriksen has ambitions to play with a team that appears in the Champions League, Tottenham Hotspur’s interest is said to be insignificant. While MU did not participate in the competition.
So, Christian Eriksen.
He had told Brentford he was prob leaving. Bees made renewed bid/Thomas Frank met with him and are back in race.
Spurs & Man Utd interested but not a priority. Now likely if he doesn’t return to Tottenham, Bees will get their man.https://t.co/oXKefu7HWq

Brentford now has a high enough chance to agree a contract with the Danish player.
