Antonio Conte is looking at the possibility of signing Christian Eriksen this summer. Eriksen signed a 6 months deal with Brentford after Inter Milan ended his deal. Inter Milan had to end Eriksen`s contract because of Serie-A rules on implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD).

Conte wants Eriksen as he will help improve Tottenham’s chances of winning any trophy next season. Spurs boss has previously talked up the chances of the Dane returning to the club soon. In February, Antonio Conte did not rule out a move
Conte on Eriksen`s Potential Return To Spurs
“For sure, Eriksen is part of Tottenham’s story. To come back here would be a good opportunity for him, for me, for the club. Now he’s signed for Brentford… only six months, and we’ll see what happens.
“I’m the first person to be happy to see him again on the pitch because we spent a really good time at Inter Milan together. We won the league, we spent two important seasons together. I wish him all the best for the future. And you don’t know what will happen. It would be good for me to have him again, to work together.”
