Manchester United are reportedly considering a January move for out-of-favour Inter Milan midfielder Christian Eriksen, but could face competition from PSG.

Manchester United are reportedly considering a January move for out-of-favour Inter Milan midfielder Christian Eriksen.

The 28-year-old only joined Inter from Tottenham Hotspur in January of this year, but he has struggled to establish a regular spot in the first team under Antonio Conte.

Eriksen has made only nine Serie A starts for the club since his arrival, with just one of those coming so far this season.

Todofichajes reports that Man United are considering a January swoop for the playmaker, having also been credited with an interest during his time with Spurs.

Inter Milan are reportedly keen to recoup the €20m (£18.3m) they paid Tottenham to sign him earlier this year, making the Denmark international an affordable option.

However, the Red Devils are expected to face competition for his signature, with French champions Paris Saint-Germain having reportedly made Eriksen their number one target for January.

Eriksen has scored four goals and created three more in his 29 outings for Inter across all competitions so far.
