Denmark midfielder Christian Eriksen joined Inter Milan from Tottenham Hotspur in January in search of a new challenge. But his pursuit of a new challenge has spelt further trouble for him as he is yet to establish himself under Antonio Conte at San Siro, as he rounds off a year in Serie A. Amid rumours of an early exit in the January transfer window, Inter Milan chief Giuseppe Marotta has sent out a brutal statement on the same.
The Inter Milan chief spoke to Sky Sports Italia, during which he confirmed the Eriksen transfer talks. Marotta asserted that the Dane is on the club’s transfer list in the coming transfer window. Eriksen is not functional to the club’s plans and it would be better for him to find a new club soon, said the club chief.
However, Marotta denies any conflict with the player. He claims the club has never doubted the former Tottenham midfielder’s commitment and professionalism. The club’s decision to put him up on the transfer list wasn’t an insult or punishment for him, clarified Marotta.
