Christian Eriksen is set to become Manchester United’s second signing of the season

After confirming the signing of Tyrel Malacia just yesterday, the club have moved quickly to make Christian Eriksen their second signing of the season. They are still in talks with Barcelona for Frenkie de Jong and have opened talks with Ajax for Lisandro Martinez and Antony.

After a very slow start to the summer, it seems the Red Devils are finally making some progress in strengthening the team. The club starts their pre-season today and will want their new signings to be part of it as soon as possible.

Christian Eriksen has been one of the most creative midfielders in the Premier League over the years. He was a vital part of Tottenham Hotspurs’ set-up before his move to Inter Milan. In 237 Premier League appearances, the midfielders have managed 52 goals and 71 assists.

While Manchester United already have Bruno Fernandes as an attacking midfielder. It will be interesting to see how the team lines up with Christian Eriksen in their ranks.
