Eriksen, who is entering the final year of his contract with Spurs, has not ruled out staying with the club.

But European football journalist Julien Laurens believes the Spanish giants have other priorities this summer namely Manchester United star Paul Pogba.Speaking to Natalie Sawyer on talkSPORT, Laurens said: I think Real Madrid was a very good possibility at some point.But hes maybe not their number one choice, which is Paul Pogba. If they cant get Pogba, then they can move for Eriksen.getty2

Laurens says signing Paul Pogba from Manchester United is a great priority for Zinedine Zidane this summer

Im not sure his performance in the Champions League final helped him a lot to get that big move away from Spurs, because he was a bit disappointing.In some of those big games he had been disappointing, shying away from tackles or from physicality and things like that.Julien Laurens admits that going to Juventus is an option for Paul Pogba And for a club like Real Madrid, when you already have players like Toni Kroos, who youve just given a new deal to, and Luka Modric plus maybe Paul Pogba coming, Eriksen is not the kind of player you want to go for.Im sure there will be a lot of clubs in for him. Hes got only one year left on his contract so the price cant be too high because he will be free in a years time.Even if Daniel Levy is a tough businessman and a tough negotiator, theres a good deal to make for someone there with Christian Eriksen.
