Christian Eriksen is set to stay at Tottenham Hotspur after bids from Spain failed to materialise in the summer transfer window, per The Daily Mail.
What’s the word?
The Denmark international expressed a desire to try something new after the club lost the Champions League final to Liverpool.
Eriksen, the report states, had set his heart on a move to La Liga, but neither Barcelona or Real Madrid have made a move for the playmaker.
Of course, the 27-year-old’s contract expires at the end of the season, meaning he can agree a deal that will see him leave for a foreign club on a free in January.
Spurs, the Mail claims, have offered Eriksen a new contract worth £200,000-per-week and it remains on the table, but he has insisted that he is not after a payday, merely a change in his professional circumstances.
A pyrrhic victory
Eriksen seems set to stay until at least January.
On a base level, that seems a good thing for Spurs as they are retaining one of their best players.
But the prospect of losing him on a free transfer will smart for chairman Daniel Levy and manager Mauricio Pochettino.

He has proved that he’s one of the best attacking midfielders in England in his time at Spurs, scoring 66 goals and registering 86 assists in 280 appearances.
Keeping him around is a good thing in the short-term; losing him on a free certainly isn’t.
