Tottenham are increasingly confident that star midfielder Christian Eriksen will sign a new deal at the club, according to reports.

The 27-year-old has been linked with a summer exit, with Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Manchester United all said to be interested in securing the Denmark man’s services.

Eriksen’s current contract runs out next summer, and negotiations between club and player had seemingly stalled as Europe’s biggest clubs circled around the current Premier League season’s joint-assist leader.

However, Goal report that the club expects former Ajax star Eriksen to sign a new deal that will double the Dane’s £75,000-per-week wage, which will bring him on par with midfielder Dele Alli, who signed a new contract in October.

Eriksen has been instrumental in Tottenham’s success in recent seasons, and the club were reluctant to lose out on such a key player.

At 27, the player is set to enter his prime, and Tottenham, who are locked in a battle to secure a top-four spot and Champions League qualification that comes with it, want the Dane to help take the club further in the next few seasons.
