Christen Eriksen- Ajax to Liverpool
Eriksen is regarded as one of the brightest midfield talents in European football at the moment and has been linked with a number of clubs over the last couple of years. However, he has stayed at Ajax and has flourished under the guidance of manager Frank De Boer. This summer, the midfielder could be departing the Netherlands though, with Liverpool thought to be front runners in the race to sign the Dane. Eriksen only has one year remaining on his current contract at Ajax and there appears little chance that the midfielder will sign a new deal. Many people are also saying that it is time that Eriksen left Ajax and played in a higher league and that maybe exactly what Eriksen does. Liverpool have been linked with a move for Eriksen many times and Brendan Rodgers may now step up his interest in the 21 year old. Liverpool’s style of play would certainly suit Eriksen and Rodgers is looking for a top quality player that can push the Reds towards the Premier League’s top four. Eriksen could be available for around £15 million but Liverpool must be careful, as other sides such as AC Milan are also tracking the midfielder.
