Jakarta –
Christian Eriksen reportedly close to Manchester United. It is considered to be like a fairy tale.
Eriksen and Manchester United are reported to have made a verbal agreement. The Danish man could soon be officially signed to Old Trafford and mark the end of his six-month relationship with Brentford.
The performance with Brentford was a heartwarming turnaround for Eriksen, whose athletic career looked set to be over after suffering a heart attack during last year’s European Cup tie.

Eriksen’s life was saved by the quick reaction of his team mate Simon Kjaer and the Danish national team’s medical staff. After being fitted with a defibrillator, Eriksen left Inter Milan and trained under Erik ten Hag at Ajax before agreeing his short-term contract with Brentford.
Eriksen will now join Ten Hag again under the banner of the Red Devils. His compatriot Anders Lindegaard, who is also a former United goalkeeper, heard the news.
“It’s a fairy tale. No one is going to see that in a crystal ball and I’m very happy for Christian to get him back in such a great way. I’m very impressed, but not too surprised,” Lindegaard told BBC World Service Sport.
“Christian has a special mentality; a mentality that would suit United very well. He’s not in football for fame, money, a lavish lifestyle or showing off. Christian is in football because of his love of the game – in a way I don’t know anyone else does.” he continued.
Erisken is also not only useful in the field. Lindegaard thinks the former Tottenham Hotspur player has an okay personality off the field, moreover he never cared about popularity.
“Christian comes as a completely different character. He doesn’t care about followers on social media. He doesn’t care about luxury cars or expensive watches. All he cares about is playing football, enjoying football and making it the beautiful game we all want.” he insisted.
