Eriksen committed to Ajax, says agent

Ajax midfielder Christian Eriksen is committed to the Eredivisie champions, his agent said on Saturday.

Eriksen, 20, labelled Liverpool’s reported interest as ‘flattering’, but insisted he was not interested in a move away from his club.

Martin Schoots, his representative, has now echoed his client’s statements, insisting the youngster is focused on continuing his development at the Amsterdam Arena.

“There a lot of clubs who have asked about Christian’s situation – some very seriously. But Christian never thought about switching clubs too seriously,” Schoots told Tipsbladet.

“(Eriksen) is currently fully focused on his development at Ajax. That is the only important thing right now.”

Ajax will travel to Heracles on Saturday as Frank de Boer’s charges look to maintain pace with table-toppers Twente.
