da bet7k: Christian Eriksen is set to again snub a move to Manchester United in the January transfer window, per The Daily Star.
What’s the word?
da betway: The Denmark international’s contract expires at the end of the season and the report claims that United attempted to sign him in the summer.
Manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was said to be hopeful of a cut-price January swoop that would have cost the club £20m.
However, Eriksen is not keen on the move and is aware that becoming a free agent in the summer will make him a more attractive proposition to Europe’s elite.

Football FanCast understands that Juventus are interested and are hopeful of securing a deal for the star.
A desire for change
Eriksen wants to change his surroundings.
Sources in the summer told FFC that the Dane is keen on a move to Europe because he wishes to enjoy a new culture.
Then, he was keen on a potential move to either Real Madrid or Barcelona but no bid was forthcoming.
Now, as his future comes under question with Eriksen able to discuss his future with any European club in the January transfer window, it seems that he is sticking to his guns by rejecting the advances of United.
Money talks: How much did Levy pay for each of these Spurs stars?
He could well double his current salary with a move to Old Trafford but it appears he would rather take a risk and attempt to make it in either Spain or Italy or another European country.
It is an admirable stance but it will not settle his future any time soon and could see him remain a Tottenham player until the summer.
Meanwhile, Max Aarons could well move to Spurs due to “fate”.
