Christian Eriksen has completed a move to Manchester United on a free transfer as Erik ten Hag continues to improve his squad ahead of the 2022-23 season. The move comes just over a year after Eriksen suffered a cardiac arrest at Euro 2020.

Eriksen was released by Serie A giants Inter after having a defibrillator fitted, but linked up with Brentford on a short-term contract in January 2022, and has now joined the Red Devils at Old Trafford.

What is the length of Eriksen’s contract at Man Utd?
The 30-year-old midfielder joins United as a free agent, with no extension to his terms at Brentford agreed.

He has been handed a three-year contract by the Red Devils, with that deal set to take him through to the summer of 2025.

What did Eriksen say after joining Man Utd?
“Manchester United is a special club, and I cannot wait to get started,” Eriksen told the club’s website.

“I have had the privilege of playing at Old Trafford many times but to do it in the red shirt of United will be an amazing feeling.

“I have seen Erik’s work at Ajax and know the level of detail and preparation that he and his staff put into every day. It is clear that he is a fantastic coach. Having spoken with him and learned more about his vision and the way he wants the team to play, I am even more excited for the future.

“I still have major ambitions in the game, there is a huge amount that I know I can achieve, and this is the perfect place to continue my journey.”
