Sir Alex Ferguson has delivered his verdict on Christian Eriksen amid Manchester United links

Former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has previously hailed the talents of attacking midfielder Christian Eriksen amid ongoing links connecting him with a move to Old Trafford.

According to various reports, United are interested in signing the Denmark international ahead of the summer transfer window opening later this month. The former Tottenham Hotspur star joined Brentford on a short-term deal back in January after leaving Inter Milan in December by mutual consent.

Eriksen was forced to leave the Italian heavyweights after being fitted with an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) device after suffering a cardiac arrest on international duty at last summer's European Championship. He collapsed during Denmark's tournament opener against Finland and it was considered a miracle that he pulled through.
