Christian Eriksen agent 'set to hold talks with Inter Milan'

The agent of Tottenham Hotspur attacker Christian Eriksen is set to fly to Italy to hold talks with Inter Milan, according to a report.

Christian Eriksen's agent is reportedly set to fly to Italy to hold talks with Inter Milan as the Denmark international moves a step closer to leaving Tottenham Hotspur.

Spurs have allegedly given up hope of keeping the former Ajax playmaker, who will see his contract with Jose Mourinho's side expire at the end of the current season.

Real Madrid and Manchester United have both been strongly linked with Eriksen, but Inter have recently emerged as the favourites to secure a deal for the 27-year-old.

According to Sky Italia, Eriksen's agent is due to arrive in Milan for talks with Inter over a move to the Italian giants at the end of the campaign.

Spurs are allegedly willing to sell the attacker for £20m during the January transfer window as they would not receive a fee for him this summer.

However, Inter are seemingly prepared to wait until July to officially sign the Dane, who has only managed two Premier League goals during the 2019-20 campaign.

Antonio Conte's side are also thought to have agreed a pre-contract with Manchester United's Ashley Young.
