Christian Eriksen has been one of the best players in the Premier League this season for his club Tottenham and has played a pivotal role in their midfield to make them the runners-up this term. He has been in superb form of late and has attracted interests from a number of big name clubs from all over Europe including the Spanish giants Barcelona.
Reportedly, the Catalan club have been showing interest to bag the brilliant Danish international for the next season, given their awful performance in the Champions League this term, which saw them crash out of the tournament at the hands of eventual finalists Juventus in the quarter-final. They were not able to score a single goal against the Bianconeri despite having one of the best strike forces in the world of football, including the stalwarts like Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar.
Speculations are rife that the Danish midfielder might consider making a move to the Spanish La Liga club in the next season in case there is a genuine offer which is lucrative offer to make him part ways with Tottenham this summer. Barcelona undoubtedly look more than happy if the deal is done, as it will help them add a player to their squad who can supply the right ball in the right place to get the top three going.
Eriksen has signed a new contract with his current club Tottenham which will see him stay at the Premier League club till 2020. However, the Denmark international has not concealed his appreciation for the Spanish giants, indicating that a move to the Catalan club might not be completely written off in the future.
If Eriksen signs for Barcelona, he might be a crucial part of the midfield, with the star midfielder Andres Iniesta in the twilight of his career. The Danish international can be a good replacement for him with the guile and wise decisions that he shows on the field while distributing the ball.
However, there might be a problem that Eriksen might have to face with the number of top class players that the Catalan giants have in their ranks, which might compel the team management to make him sit on the sidelines at times, which might be detrimental to his career, as he is having full game time at his current club Tottenham in almost every match that he has been playing since his arrival from Dutch club Ajax in 2014.
