According to reports from The Sun, Tottenham Hotspur are planning to restart contract talks with Denmark attacking midfielder Christian Eriksen.

Spurs failed to agree to a new deal with the Danish international during the summer transfer window.

The report claims that Eriksen wanted his salary to go from £70,000-a-week to £160,000-a-week.

It remains to be seen whether Spurs agree to his demands or not, but the club would be looking to hold discussion with him about a new contract shortly.

Eriksen has a contract at the club till the end of next season. It means Spurs do have time to get him signed to a new deal, but with Barcelona and Real Madrid reportedly showing interest, they are hoping to tie him down as soon as possible.

The 26-year-old has been a key player for Mauricio Pochettino’s side. He has been at Spurs for a long time and is heading towards that stage of his career where he may be reaching his peak.
