It's reported that Real Madrid will need to pay a massive £129 million to acquire his services. Yes, one hundred and twenty-nine million!

That's despite the player having just one year left on his current deal.

Eriksen's future in North London has been clouded with uncertainty as reports suggest he has no plans to renew his contract at Spurs.

Zidane is believed to view the Denmark international as the long-term successor to Luka Modric, who was also poached from Spurs.

He swapped North London for Madrid in 2012 in a transfer worth £30 million.

It's expected to be a hectic summer window for Real Madrid. Will Eriksen to part of the club's influx of new talent?
