The Daily Mail report that Juventus have contacted Eriksen about the possibility of joining the reigning Serie A champions on a free transfer in 2020 when the Danish international, seemingly, becomes a free agent.
The Italian giants have formed a reputation for themselves in recent years for being able to poach some of the best out of contract players in the game, with the likes of Aaron Ramsey and Adrien Rabio joining this summer alone, joining the likes of Emre Can and Sami Khedira, who also signed for Juventus on free transfers.
With Juventus reportedly interested in Eriksen, Tottenham fans were not happy with the news and took to social media to vent their frustration.
Here is what some fans had to say on Twitter…
Juventus are the snakiest club in world football. Despise them.

This was probably their plan all along. In fact, this contact probably happened before the transfer window ended and the response they got(that he would be ready or not to join now or at the end of his contract)very likely caused them to pull the plug.

This is literally what they do. Poach on free agents. I fully expect them to do everything in their power to ensure dybala doesn’t join us.

Top level trolling. Fair play to them.
