Tottenham midfielder Christian Eriksen appears one step closer to joining Inter, with the Dane not even being on the bench for Tottenham’s FA Cup clash against Southampton today.

The player is expected to arrive in Milan on Monday or Tuesday next week in order to undergo his medical examinations, before signing a four-and-a-half-year contract with the Nerazzurri. The Milanese side eventually agreed to pay Spurs’ requested price of €20 million, a high fee considering his contract with the North London club expires in June. Eriksen was in the stands for the game.
