Barcelona plot surprise Tottenham swoop: This man could play key role in negotiations
BARCELONA are reportedly lining up a surprise move for Tottenham star Christian Eriksen.
Barcelona have set their sights on Tottenham's Christian Eriksen
Tottenham’s challenge for the Premier League title has been in part down to the form of Dane, who has chipped in with 11 goals in all competitions this term.
With the north London outfit moving to a new stadium, it is unclear how much the club will outlay on new signings at the end of the season.
Michael Laudrup could act as a go-between for negotiations
And now it seems Eriksen is being lined up with a big move away from White Hart Lane.
The Sunday Mirror claim Barca have set their sights on the 25-year-old as they seek to rebuild the club.
The Catalan giants have been impressed with his form, and he is believed to be seen as the perfect player to feed Lionel Messi, Neymar and Luis Suarez in front of goal.
Luis Enrique announces he is leaving as Barcelona manager
It is also said that Barca could use former star Michael Laudrup as a middle man in potential negotiations.
Eriksen is believed to have been scouted extensively by the La Liga outfit since the turn of the year.
He only signed a new four-year deal with Tottenham last September.
