If Madrid ends up wanting him, we’re going to be in a pretty tough position. He’s already said he wants a new challenge and has one year left on his contract. If Madrid puts 70m on the table, it’s pretty hard to see us holding out considering the alternative of losing him for free.
Can't see any way that Madrid would shell out 70m for what amounts to 1 year of service from Eriksen given that he'd be free in 12 months time. The only leverage we have in this is if Eriksen signs another contract, but you can bet your life it would have some clauses in it that made it easy enough to bugger off to Spain if he wanted to.
