They parted ways with Wan Bissaka and Willy Kambawala already, and Scott McTominay is also likely to depart. Christian Eriksen, who is already 32, will also be on sale if a good offer comes as the player’s contract expires in a year.

This is when Anderlecht CEO Jesper Fredberg was asked if he would sign Eriksen. Fredberg said that even though he is interested in the player, signing him right now is a bit difficult considering the wage demand of the player. But if a favorable scenario comes in, Anderlecht will surely step in to sign the player.
“I myself have never mentioned the name Christian Eriksen, but of course, I know Christian. He is a top player who is still contracted for one year at a top club.
“At the moment, (signing Eriksen) doesn’t seem realistic. But if a door suddenly opens, I want to be the first to step in. It’s not just about what Manchester United is asking for. But it will also be about the player’s salary demands in such a case.”
