A Manchester United scout has revealed the club's scouting department has been "crazy" about Christian Eriksen for "several years".
The Denmark international, 30, recently signed a three-year deal with United after leaving Brentford earlier this summer. He joined the Bees on a short-term contract in February and played a crucial role in keeping them in the Premier League, making 11 appearances.
Eriksen is regarded as one of the best playmakers in European football, winning three Eredivisie titles at Ajax and Serie A with Inter Milan. He is vastly experienced, playing over 750 senior games for club and country over the last 13 years.
