CHRISTIAN ERIKSEN HAS WRITTEN A GOODBYE STATEMENT TO MAN UTD FANS AFTER SPENDING THREE YEARS AT OLD TRAFFORD. 12:35, 30 May 2025 Christian Eriksen has thanked Manchester United fans for

their support during his three years at the club. Former United manager Erik ten Hag signed Eriksen on a free transfer in the summer of 2022. Eriksen had just spent time with Brentford and

he developed a strong relationship with Casemiro and Bruno Fernandes during his time at Old Trafford. The Denmark international was a key player in the first few months of his debut season,

but he's been in and out of the starting team for most of his time at the club and is leaving when his contract expires. Eriksen said goodbye to Old Trafford on the final day of the

Premier League season and he did not travel to Asia for the post-season friendlies in Kuala Lumpur and Hong Kong. On Friday, he released a statement to thank United supporters, writing:

"A huge thank you to all the fans who has supported me through the last three years as a Manchester United player. "Thank you to all the kind and hardworking people at the club who

have made me and my family feel so welcomed since day one. And a big thank you to my teammates, it’s been a pleasure sharing the changing room and pitch together! "It’s been an amazing

time and I’ve made some incredible memories that I will keep forever. "Thank you, Christian." Eriksen's agent, Martin Schoots, provided an update to BT on his next move,

saying: "Christian is still ambitious and has a lot to give to a bigger league. I can easily see him playing in his home country in the future, but I think for now it will only be for

the national team." Ajax, Anderlecht and Brentford have been linked with a move for Eriksen, who scored eight goals during his 107 appearances for United across all competitions.

Eriksen spoke to journalists in the mixed zone after facing Aston Villa and claimed United were fortunate not to be relegated this season. “I think unfortunately there’s been a lot of lows

this season with the games, and obviously the final was the missing piece. It’s football," said Eriksen. “For me now, I think people are lucky that we are where we are, not relegated

with the team with the season we’ve had, so it is also a bit of luck you have to acknowledge. Next season it has to be better, and I’m sure it will be. I’m looking forward to watching it

from the sides.” Eriksen also thanked United fans for their unwavering support throughout a difficult campaign. “There’s been so many games this season where they [the supporters] could have

caused a lot of chaos where we’ve been disappointed with our football," he said. "But obviously the fans, I think to our surprise really, have supported us. Obviously, at home has

been, even in the stadium, there’s been games where it’s been not good enough, but they’ve really been supportive and away especially they’ve been even more on their toes and even in the

worst times. “The club is happy to have those supporters who really support the players and the club no matter what.” --- _Here at The Manchester Evening News, we are dedicated to bringing
