Christian Eriksen Joins Inter Milan In £16.9m Deal
Seria A giants, Inter Milan have signed Christian Eriksen in a £16million deal which will last four-and-a-half year.
The club announced the signing Tuesday, adding that the deal includes Inter paying a £843k (€1m) sell-on clause to the Dane’s former club Ajax and Spurs pocketing the proceeds of a friendly game with the Milan club in the future.
The Danish international left Milan from London on Monday morning after weeks of negotiations between the clubs, with Spurs chairman Daniel Levy insisting on £16.8million transfer request, even when they were at risk of loosing him for free as soon as his contract expires.

Eriksen, 27 was given warm welcome by the fans of Inter upon arrival at the Humanitas clinic in Rozzano, Italy, where he underwent his medicals before penning his £130k-per-week deal, keeping him at the San Siro until June 2024.
The midfielder who will wear No. 24 is Inter’s third signing from the Premier League this month, as they earlier launched Ashley Young from Manchester United and Victor Moses from Chelsea, with head coach Antonio Conte.
Meanwhile, Tottenham have signed Giovani Lo Celso from Real Betis for £27m to replace Erikson.
