“I am the person who really wants to play football. I was able to imagine my transfer to United only after the arrival of Ten Haga with his ideology. MU is one of the greatest clubs in the world. Mancunians have a rich history, it’s nice to feel part of something big. But I moved here not only for the sake of the emblem,” the club’s official website quotes Eriksen as saying.

Recall that Eriksen missed the first part of the 2021/2022 season due to recovery from heart surgery, during which he was fitted with a pacemaker. In the second part of the season, the Dane played for Brentford, having played 11 matches in the English Premier League, in which he scored one goal and made four assists. Christian played two friendly matches for the national team in the season that ended, scoring two goals.
