‘Futile for Spurs to try and keep Eriksen’

Tottenham Hotspur have signed their most expensive player in Tanguy Ndombele, but it looks like they could be losing Christian Eriksen. Former Spurs player and Argentina legend Ossie Ardiles believes it would not be a smart thing to keep Eriksen at all costs.

“It looks to me like he has put his mind on a move – that he wants to go somewhere else. And if that is the case it’s futile for the club to try and keep a player when he wants to leave. I won’t say he’s not happy with us, because he is, but his mind is trying to play somewhere else, and the best thing is to part company”, Ardiles said and continued speaking about Mauricio Pochettino.

“People were speculating about who Mauricio was going to buy, but no one has the slightest clue except for Mauricio. But you can see right now the way he does things; he likes to buy young players and put a lot of his influence on them, and take it from there. People like Dele Alli for example.”
