West Ham are one of nine clubs to have made contact with Christian Eriksen's representatives over a free transfer this summer, football.london understands.
The Danish international has impressed since returning to the Premier League with Brentford this year, making several big contributions as the Bees stayed clear of the relegation zone and kept themselves in the top flight for a second season. Thomas Frank is understandably keen to keep his compatriot at the Brentford Community Stadium next season but there is plenty of competition for the Dane’s signature.
Both Spurs and Manchester United have been linked with a move for Eriksen, though a return to north London now seems less likely as Tottenham are downplaying any potential comeback for the midfielder. Elsewhere, football.london understands that West Ham, Everton, Newcastle, Leicester, Ajax and one unnamed La Liga side have all made contact with Eriksen’s representatives over a potential move.
