Former Tottenham boss Tim Sherwood has claimed that Brentford star Christian Eriksen would improve Manchester United amid rumours he could join the Red Devils this summer. The Danish midfielder’s future has been the subject of much speculation, with his short-term contract in west London expiring in June.
Eriksen signed a six-month deal with the Bees in January and has rebuilt his career after suffering cardiac arrest whilst playing for Denmark at Euro 2020. His creativity, vision and ability to retain possession have played a vital role in Thomas Frank’s side avoiding relegation in their maiden Premier League season.
The 30-year-old’s impressive form has seen him linked with a number of clubs, including former side Spurs, where he spent six-and-half-seasons before leaving for Inter Milan in January 2020. However, Man United are expected to have a major overhaul this summer with new boss Erik ten Hag at the helm and Sherwood - who previously worked with Eriksen during his spell in north London - believes he could be part of that rebuild.
