Christian Eriksen, 32 years old, is living his last months as a player for Manchester United. According to the renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano, the sports management of the English club has decided not to extend his contract, which would end his time at Old Trafford at the end of the current season.
The Danish midfielder joined the 'red devils' in the summer of 2022 after a notable spell at Brentford, where he showcased his quality in six impressive months following his return to professional football after his heart issue. Since then, Eriksen has been a player appreciated by the fans, although his tenure at the club has coincided with one of the most challenging periods sportswise for Manchester United.
Rúben Amorim wants fresh blood, Eriksen is not in the plans
Currently, his continuity seems to depend solely on the will of the coach Rúben Amorim, who recently took over the helm. However, as reported by MundoDeportivo, the Portuguese coach has barely used him, granting him minutes only in his debut against Ipswich Town in a cup match, where the Dane played 68 minutes. This lack of prominence seems to confirm that the club is already planning for the future without Eriksen.
The decision marks a turning point in Eriksen's career, who will now have to seek a new destination after leaving his mark on Old Trafford. His experience and talent ensure him options in other teams, although his departure will be an emotional blow for the fans who hold him in high regard.
