Christian Eriksen Transfer from Manchester United to Celtic

Christian Eriksen has been made available by Manchester United, who are open to receiving suitable offers for the playmaker who is currently not in favor. The Danish midfield maestro has been mentioned as a potential option for Celtic in January. However, the impressive depth of options at Celtic and Eriksen's reportedly high weekly wage of £150,000 make such a transfer seem unlikely. Nevertheless, it is suggested that Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers might be looking to acquire a new midfielder next month. Sky Sports Germany has reported that Eriksen could be available as early as the winter if a suitable offer is made, as Manchester United aims to recover a minor fee before his contract ends in the summer. Additionally, if a sale cannot be arranged, a loan deal that would reduce a significant portion of his wages is also being considered.

Christian Eriksen was set to leave Manchester United regardless of the managerial change. However, any notion that Celtic might have had of acquiring the Dane seems unlikely now. His wages, reported to be £150,000 per week, have been described as a 'big obstacle' by Football Insider's Pete O’Rourke. Celtic is reportedly not considering the player due to his salary expectations.

Christian Eriksen is entering the final year of his contract with Manchester United and may leave the club as a free agent in the summer. Paul Parker, who previously played for Old Trafford, indicated that a transfer to Celtic would be an 'obvious' and 'attractive' option for Eriksen. This is attributed to the club's participation in continental competitions and the existing rapport between Eriksen and Celtic's manager, Brendan Rodgers. Despite potential challenges concerning his salary, Parker expressed the opinion that Eriksen is among the best players of the modern era and would excel at Celtic, even though he has the capability to perform at a higher level than the Scottish league.
