Bayern Munich are reportedly interested in Christian Eriksen

Bayern Munich could be in for Tottenham Hotspur’s Christian Eriksen in a big-money move.

Club president Ulrich Hoeneß and chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge have both spoken publicly about the money available to Bayern Munich but the pair have insisted the club will maintain a sense of fiscal discipline.

The Tottenham play-maker has been followed by the top clubs from Europe like Chelsea, Juventus, Manchester United, and Real Madrid.

Los Blancos have apparently ended their pursuit of the midfielder which opened space for Bayern Munich to express interest in the Spurs player.

AS report that Madrid had thought they could sign Eriksen from Tottenham for around €84 million but no longer feel that fee would do the trick in an ever-inflating transfer market.

Despite a higher price tag, Bayern would be able to keep up with any serious demands for Eriksen.

With an earned reputation for driving a hard bargain, Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy has valued Eriksen at €250 million.

While that figure may be out-of-hand, Bayern would not dismiss the possibility of meeting the €84m valuation that had scared off Madrid even though it would double the German club’s previous record transfer fee of €41.5 million for Corentin Tolisso.

Bayern’s pursuit of England youth international Callum Hudson-Odoi from Chelsea points to an emphasis on youth but Eriksen still has several years ahead of him at the age of 26.

The Bavarians boast a stable of talented midfielders but that same group of players failed to impress during the first half of the Bundesliga season under manager Niko Kovač.

Eriksen would add talent to the Bundesliga giants but the cost-benefit analysis of his sizable transfer fee is bound to cause a headache or two in southeast Germany.
