Brentford youngster Mogensen excited by Eriksen arrival

Brentford youngster Gustav Mogensen admits he's thrilled by the prospect of training with Christian Eriksen.

The 20 year-old Dane admits working alongside Eriksen is "surreal".

"It is surreal, as I have looked up to him a lot. I'm sure we'll probably have a good chat or two, but it's completely surreal that he's coming to Brentford," he told Bold.

"I have no doubt that I can learn a lot from him, and then we have to see if he can learn something from me.

"It's a huge star coming to the club now. However, I probably will not be starstruck when I meet him in the club. He is just another Dane that I have seen on the national team. It was the same as with Mathias Jensen, Mathias Zanka and Jonas Lössl.

"But then it will be special, it is Christian Eriksen..."
