Ajax and Wolverhampton Wanderers have emerged as new contenders to sign Inter outcast Christian Eriksen tonight.

Transfer guru Gianluca Di Marzio told viewers on his Sky Sport Italia show that both clubs are in contact with the Danish midfielder’s agent.

Inter have yet to receive an offer from any club for the 28-year-old, who has no role in Antonio Conte’s plans and is widely expected to leave in January.

It remains to be seen how serious Ajax and Wolves’s interest is and what they would be prepared to offer the Nerazzurri.

Eriksen began his professional career at the Eredivisie club, coming through their academy system to make 162 appearances for the first team, before signing for Tottenham in 2013.

The 28-year-old was an unused substitute in Inter’s 6-2 win at home to Crotone on Sunday afternoon, having made just five starts in all competitions this season.

His immediate future remains unclear, although Inter’s chief executive officer Beppe Marotta has made it clear on numerous occasions in recent weeks that he is not functional to Conte’s ideas.

Ajax are top of the Eredivisie after 14 games while Wolves lie 13th in the Premier League after 17 matches.
