West Ham United are reportedly shock suitors for Christian Eriksen.

According to Eurosport, the Hammers are looking to raid Inter Milan for the Danish playmaker, who is way down the pecking order at the Italian club.

Eriksen is coming up to the end of his first year with the Nerazzurri, but his £17 million move from Tottenham Hotspur (BBC Sport) has been a failure.

In recent weeks, he’s been brought on in games with mere minutes to go by Antonio Conte, which has been seen as a humiliation for the 28-year-old.

Supposedly West Ham are now ready to offer him an escape route, and current Irons goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski is known to be a fan on Eriksen’s.

Fabianski said back in 2016 before gearing up to face Eriksen for Poland (goal.pl): “We know it is a strong team, with the ranks of very good players with one highly skilled individual. Of course, more associate players playing every day in the Premier League, as Christian Eriksen

“He is a player who stands out as the driving force behind the attack. He performs great set pieces and his game has a lot of positive qualities.”

TBR’s View – Unlikely deal would take Hammers to next level

A move to the London Stadium has got to be somewhat unlikely, but if West Ham can spring a shock then Eriksen could take them to the next level.

The star is vastly experienced at Premier League level obviously, having had many fine years with Spurs, and may feel as though he has unfinished business in England.

It isn’t working out for him in Italy, so David Moyes could test the waters over a player Fabianski has previously rated quite highly.
