Christian Eriksen said he will almost certainly leave Man United in the summer of 2025. June is also the time when the Danish midfielder's contract with the "Red Devils" will expire.
One of the reasons the former Tottenham star shared about this is because until now, March, he has not seen any action from his home team about an extension.
In addition, with the current spending tightening policy, Sir Jim Ratcliffe and the INEOS team will not extend the contract for any player who is aging and cannot contribute much to save the salary fund. Eriksen is gradually decreasing in his contribution frequency to Man United, so it is understandable that he has to leave.
In the near future, the 33-year-old midfielder does not know where to go. He did not want to return home to play the rest of his career. Eriksen also did not want to go to the US to compete. The Man United star wants to stay in Europe's top leagues to continue his career.
"I haven't thought much about the future. In my head right now, I only know for sure that I will find something new. However, that is something I have not yet decided on.
I have not heard any information about the extension. Therefore, I think everything will stop. Everyone knows that my contract and the club are about to expire, so there is only one way to end it" - Eriksen shared with TV 2 Sport, a Danish news agency in this national team training session.
Eriksen came to Man United 3 years ago in the summer of 2022. He arrived at Old Trafford after finishing his relationship with Brentford and leaving as a free player.
When he arrived at Man United, Eriksen only played well in his first season. After that, he suffered many injuries and could no longer maintain his form due to old age.
Speaking about his first season under Erik ten Hag, Eriksen played well and, together with the crowned team in the League Cup, reached the FA Cup final and finished the Premier League in 3rd place overall.
After that, at this point last year, he had to admit that he was not happy because he was not often given the opportunity to play.
No longer holding the starting position due to self-deprecation, Eriksen has to compete with many younger teammates such as Kobbie Mainoo or Manuel Ugarte.
Not to mention his long-time teammates such as Bruno Fernandes or recently Casemiro (resurgited form) are also irreplaceable cases.
Eriksen has shown signs of playing more recently. In Man United's last 2 matches in the Premier League, the Danish star was a starter. However, the Premier League with Man United is now just a playground to keep a place, they will focus all their efforts on the Europa League.
In this important arena, Eriksen is of course not used. He was only a reserve replacement in the match against Real Sociedad in the last round of 16.
