Galatasaray Eye Man Utd’s Eriksen For Summer Signing

Galatasaray have decided against making an approach for Christian Eriksen in the final days of the Turkish transfer window but they will likely step up their interest in the Manchester United midfielder in the summer, a source has told ESPN.

The January transfer window in Turkey closes on Feb. 9 and although Galatasaray were interested in Eriksen, there is little confidence that a deal can be done before the deadline.

Eriksen is now set to stay at Old Trafford for the rest of the season, but a source has told ESPN that Galatasaray are keen to revisit a deal for the Denmark international in the summer. The 31-year-old, who arrived at United on a free transfer in 2022, has a contract until 2025.

He remains a key member of Erik ten Hag’s squad but has lost his place in the starting side team following the emergence of 18-year-old Kobbie Mainoo and Casemiro’s return from injury.
