The former Manchester United midfielder, Christian Eriksen, trains with Malmo while looking for a new club.
The 33 -year -old man left United at the end of last season after the expiration of his contract and, having rejected the possibility of joining the ambitious championship club Wrexham, is still looking for the right opportunity.
In the meantime, he connected with the Swedish champions Malmo in order to remain lively.
It’s a bit fun – Malmo
Malmo Sporting director Daniel Andersson told Gasetten: “It’s a bit fun. He’s a nice player and a nice guy. We want to have a good level in our training and it can certainly help it and be a little inspiration [to the other players]. “”
Malmo is without a match this weekend due to the international break, but everything focuses on the confrontation with Ellsborg when club football resumes.
Andersson explained: “Friday, Saturday and Sunday are disabled, so there are no training sessions. Then we focus on our match against Ellsborg next week, but if he is in sessions at the start of next week, if he can’t find a club, it might not hurt.
“But the most important thing for us is that we focus on our matches. But he is obviously a good player, so it is not that he will ruin anything. Quite the opposite.”
Complications if Eriksen remains with Malmo
If Malmo makes their interest firm up with an offer to the Danish, then they may have to look for a special exemption to play it in the Allsvenskan with the now closed registration period. He couldn’t play in the Europa League either.
Andersson added: “It is not something I thought of, how he could integrate with us. At the moment, we are helping him and it is a fun and inspiring thing for our players.”
Eriksen was just as not committed when he was asked if he wanted to join Malmo, declaring: “I can only say that I train.”
Eriksen, who suffered a cardiac arrest playing for Denmark at Euro 2020 four years ago, started in Ajax before the spells in Tottenham, Inter Milan and Brentford before moving to Old Trafford in 2022.
