Manchester United's pursuit of key target Christian Eriksen has hit a snag.

The Dane is reportedly available for transfer as he only has six months left on his deal at Tottenham Hotspur, and chairman Daniel Levy was willing to listen to offers below £40m.

Manchester United hoped that they could land the midfielder on a cheap, yet according to the Daily Mirror, the Spurs man will again reject a move to Old Trafford, having also apparently said no to the move in the summer.

It now looks possible that Eriksen could run down his contract and move for free in the summer.
