Ole Gunnar Solskjaer asks Manchester United to complete Christian Eriksen transfer

Christian Eriksen is one of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer priority signings this summer, reports say.

The Tottenham midfielder is wanted by Real Madrid this summer after establishing himself as one of the best playmakers in the world in the last two years.

Eriksen would jump at the chance to join Real and has so far given no assurances he will sign a new deal with Tottenham.

The Mirror claim Solskjaer has spoken to Ed Woodward about signing Eriksen and United are prepared to triple the Spurs star wages.

Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is notoriously difficult to negotiate with, but United feel Eriksens reluctance to sign a new contract and Reals focus on other targets could play into their hands.

Eriksen enters the final 12 months of his deal in the summer and Real are prioritising the signings of Chelseas Eden Hazard and Uniteds Paul Pogba.

United would be willing to offer Eriksen a £240,000-a-week contract, an incredible increase on the £80,000 a week he currently earns at Tottenham.

If Tottenham are willing to sell, United anticipate they would demand upwards of £95million for Eriksen.
