Brentford ripped up their wage structure and presented a bumper long-term deal, with manager Thomas Frank revealing that he would have a statue erected for him after his time at the club.

The Danish boss did admit that Eriksen would still have his blessing if he was to leave.

The 30-year-old was again in fine form as Denmark beat Austria 2-1 in the Nations League, and it’s not just English clubs who are looking at the midfielder.

According to reports back in Denmark, Augsburg, Torino, Leverkusen, Dortmund, Sarpsborg, Trabzonspor and İstanbulspor have all been in contact with the player’s representatives to try and sign him.

Brentford’s feelings as this transfer saga continues to drag on

Brentford fans are really on the edge at the minute.

They absolutely adore the midfielder and would love to have him for at least another season, but they are also respectful and would reluctantly accept if he decides to move on to another club.

The fact that he has said that he would love to play Champions League football does suggest that he is craving something that Brentford can’t offer.

The rumours though will be frustrating Bees fans, reading every day that the player they want is being tossed around from one club to the other is not nice.
