Christian Eriksen has joined Wolfsburg on a free transfer after rejecting an offer from Wrexham. The Danish midfielder, 30, left Inter Milan in June and had been linked with several clubs in the Premier League and Championship. However, he has chosen to play in the Bundesliga, signing a two-year contract with Wolfsburg.
Eriksen will earn a reported £150,000 per week at Wolfsburg, making him one of the highest-paid players in the club's history. The move is a significant coup for the German club, who are looking to strengthen their squad ahead of the new season. Wolfsburg finished 16th in the Bundesliga last season and will be hoping that Eriksen's arrival will help them improve their results.
Wrexham, meanwhile, had been hoping to sign Eriksen on a free transfer, but were ultimately unsuccessful. The National League club have been making headlines in recent months, thanks to their takeover by the Hollywood actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. Wrexham are looking to build a strong team and compete for promotion back to the Football League.
Eriksen's move to Wolfsburg is a significant blow to Wrexham's plans, but the club are likely to continue pursuing other targets in the coming weeks. The Danish midfielder is expected to make his debut for Wolfsburg in the coming weeks, and will be looking to make an immediate impact in the Bundesliga.
