# Tottenham: Journalist shares promising Eriksen update

**[Tottenham Hotspur](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tottenham-hotspur-news/) may have been handed a boost in their pursuit of former star Christian Eriksen, according to journalist Dean Jones.**

### The Lowdown: Lilywhites eye reunion…

The Denmark superstar’s return to the grass after suffering a cardiac arrest at Euro 2020 has been nothing short of a fairy tale story.

Eriksen ended the 2021/2022 [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) season in fine form on a temporary spell at Brentford with a return to Spurs becoming possible.

[The Times](https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/antonio-conte-will-pocket-2-5m-bonus-if-spurs-reach-champions-league-0c2zmjv05) add Antonio Conte’s former midfielder at Inter Milan is a target for the Lilywhites alongside Leicester City playmaker Youri Tielemans, and what’s more, he could be open to re-signing.

### The Latest: Eriksen eyeing return…

According to Jones, speaking to [GiveMeSport,](https://www.givemesport.com/88010716-spurs-conte-could-sign-63m-star-kane-update-64-ace-set-for-hotspur-way-deal) if the right conditions are met, Eriksen ‘would be keen on a return’ to Spurs this summer as he eyes a move back to north London.

He adds that Tielemans, Weston McKennie (Juventus), Joao Palhinha (Sporting Lisbon) and Idrissa Gueye (PSG) are also potential midfield additions at Tottenham.

### The Verdict: Get it done?

Eriksen has displayed flashes of his best Spurs form under Thomas Frank across London.

According to [WhoScored](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/189/Show/England-Brentford), he finished the campaign as Brentford’s best all-round performer by average match rating – making the most key passes per 90 for the Bees and displaying real creativity.

Indeed, the [‘big name](https://twitter.com/ChrisPJGodfrey/status/1333802114355666946)‘ attacker will also be available on a Bosman deal as things stand – arguably a snip given Spurs themselves valued at him at [£100 million](https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/tottenham-place-100m-price-tag-on-christian-eriksen-jdzrmqpk2) just three years ago.

Taking all of this into account, it may well be a no-brainer to get it done.
