# Everton: Toffees make Christian Eriksen ‘pitch’

**[Everton](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/everton-fc-news/) have reportedly now made a ‘pitch’ to Christian Eriksen to try and persuade him to sign for them this summer.**

### The Lowdown: Free agent

Eriksen is officially now a [free agent](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/christian-eriksen/profil/spieler/69633) again after his short-term contract at Brentford expired.

Dubbed ‘[world-class’](https://www.ealingtimes.co.uk/sport/19891619.frank-ecstatic-world-class-eriksen-arrival/) by Bees manager Thomas Frank, the Denmark international is sure to have a whole host of clubs lining up for his signature, after scoring one goal and supplying a further four assists in 11 matches in the Premier League upon his comeback from a cardiac arrest during Euro 2020 ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/christian-eriksen/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/69633/plus/0?saison=&verein=1148&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=)).

### The Latest: Eriksen ‘pitch’

As per [iNews](https://inews.co.uk/sport/football/richarlison-transfer-everton-tottenham-deal-calvert-lewin-winks-1715396), the Goodison Park outfit have now made a ‘pitch’ to Eriksen over a potential move to Merseyside, while Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher is another player that Frank Lampard ‘likes’.

They will no longer be pursuing a deal or Harry Winks, after Lampard ‘cooled’ his interest in the Tottenham Hotspur ace.

### The Verdict: No-brainer

Given that he would arrive on a free transfer, signing Eriksen is surely a no-brainer for the Toffees.

Called a ‘[phenomenon’](https://sempreinter.com/2020/02/02/tottenham-midfielder-dele-alli-inters-christian-eriksen-is-a-phenomenon-well-miss-him/) by Blues midfielder and former Spurs teammate Dele Alli, the pair could well form a formidable partnership in the middle of the park once more.

Eriksen picked up [three](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/69344/Show/Christian-Eriksen) man-of-the-match awards in the top flight last term, [on par](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/31/Show/England-Everton) with the most in Lampard’s squad despite only arriving in the January transfer window, while he also averaged more key passes ([2.7](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/69344/Show/Christian-Eriksen)) per game than [any](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/31/Show/England-Everton) EFC player.

Nonetheless, after the sale of Richarlison to Tottenham, this would be a welcomed transfer by the supporters.
