Ex-Tottenham boss Jol not surprised Arsenal, Chelsea keen on Eriksen

Former Tottenham boss Martin Jol isn't surprised to hear Premier League clubs are keen on Ajax whiz Christian Eriksen.

Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool are all chasing the young Dane.

Jol is effusive in his praise: "He is a player in the same tradition as Rafael van der Vaart or Wesley Sneijder - the same type of player, a sort of playmaker.

"There is depth to his game. He reads the game well, he's capable of feeding the attackers, he is skilful. He is a player who will turn out to be either very good or even great."
