It seems now to be a matter of days before Christian Eriksen leaves north London after nearly seven years of service with Tottenham, yet it seems like Spurs could be getting more in return that just cash from Inter Milan.
Eriksen has agreed personal terms with #Inter and now they are trying to negotiate a deal with #thfc.
Barbosa is being mentioned in the deal, keep your eyes out for him. 👀 #whufc are interested in Barbosa but that’s a no brainier for him.

All Things Spurs report that Gabriel ‘Gabigol’ Barbosa could be involved in a deal to bring Eriksen to the San Siro, with Inter keen on selling the Brazilian attacker this month as reported by Sempre Inter following a fantastic year at Flamengo in which the Brasileiro Serie A side reached the FIFA Club World Cup final.
£20m For Eriksen?
Cash In Quick
Need Him For The Rest Of The Season
With Tottenham on the hunt for a short-term striker replacement for Harry Kane, plenty of supporters on social media were excited about the possibility of Daniel Levy pulling off a masterstroke of a deal to sell Eriksen and in return bring Gabigol to north London.
Here’s what lots of Spurs fans had to say on Twitter about Gabriel potentially joining the club…
If we got Gabigol and any amount of cash for Eriksen, that’s brilliant business.
