Inter Milan have today completed the signing of christian Eriksen for a fee of around £16.8m from Tottenham Hotspur.
The 27 year old agreed a contract length of four and a half year, and as part of the deal, Inter will also pay a £843k (€1m) sell-on clause to Eriksen’s former club Ajax and Spurs will pocket the proceeds of a friendly game with the Milan club in the future.
After weeks of negotiations between the clubs, with Spurs chairman Daniel Levy refusing to budge from his €20m (£16.8m) request, despite the risk of losing the Denmark international for free upon his contract expiry in the summer.
Eriksen completed his Medical on Monday before penning his £130k-per-week deal keeping him at the San Siro until June 2024.
Eriksen spent 6 and a half year at Spurs, making 305 appearances, scoring 69 goals and providing 89 assists.
Eriksen will wear the number 24 and could make his debut on Wednesday, when Inter host Fiorentina at the San Siro in the Coppa Italia quarter-finals, or on Sunday when they travel to Udinese in their next Serie A outing.
