Manchester United have reached a verbal agreement with Denmark international Christian Eriksen to sign him on a free transfer as part of their summer rebuild under manager Erik ten Hag.
The United manager, who will travel to Thailand with his squad on Friday for the start of the club's pre-season tour, is desperate to change the landscape of his side's midfield options this summer and Eriksen is looking as though he could be his first new addition in that area of the team. The Manchester Evening News understands that United are now working hard to get a deal wrapped up and sign him on a three-year contract.
The 30-year-old was offered a new deal by Brentford, who snapped him up on a short-term contract back in January, but he failed to commit his future to the Bees.
