Inter Milan 'to offer Christian Eriksen to Arsenal for Granit Xhaka'

Inter 'to offer Eriksen to Arsenal for Xhaka'

Inter Milan are reportedly preparing to offer Arsenal the chance to sign Christian Eriksen as part of a deal for Gunners midfielder Granit Xhaka.

Eriksen is widely expected to leave San Siro during the January transfer window, having struggled to make his mark for the Italian giants since arriving from Tottenham Hotspur in the early stages of 2020.

Arsenal have been mentioned as possible suitors for the Denmark international, and according to Tuttosport, Inter are lining up an offer involving Xhaka.

The report claims that the Serie A side had placed a £27m asking price on Eriksen but view a swap deal as an alternative as they look to move the playmaker on next month.

Xhaka has been a regular for his English club during the 2020-21 campaign, although the Switzerland international's performances have been criticised amid a difficult start for Mikel Arteta's team.

Eriksen, though, has only played six minutes of league football for Inter since the end of October.
