Mauricio Pochettino hopes Christian Eriksen will stay at Tottenham Hotspur this summer but admits interest in the midfielder is mounting.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Eriksen has been linked with Real Madrid and Manchester United after suggesting he would like to seek a new challenge.<\/p>\n

Could Eriksen stay at Spurs? Five key things to know…<\/strong><\/h2>\n
    \n
  • Eriksen is believed to be a transfer target for Real Madrid and Man Utd.<\/li>\n
  • But Madrid have already spent big this summer and are reportedly chasing Paul Pogba.<\/li>\n
  • Meanwhile, United’s lack of Champions League football could put off Eriksen.<\/li>\n
  • Reports<\/a> suggest Tottenham have tabled a new contract offer to the Dane.<\/li>\n
  • Pochettino claims there is “a lot of interest” but Eriksen’s options appear to be running short.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    With just one year remaining on his contract, the 27-year-old may have a decision to make about a new deal if a move away fails to materialise.<\/p>\n

    And Pochettino has voiced his hope for Eriksen to stay put for the 2019\/20 season.<\/p>\n

    \u201cI hope he will [stay],” Pochettino told reporters<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    \u201cI think he is a great player, Christian. One of the biggest talents in football. After five years working with him, I am sure in the way that he plays, and I hope so, yes.<\/p>\n

    \u201cBut you know, there is a lot of interest. I hope yes, but I don\u2019t know what is going to happen with that.\u201d<\/p>\n
