Inter Milan coach Conte confirms Eriksen up for sale

Inter Milan coach Antonio Conte says he's prepared to see Christian Eriksen leave next month.

Inter GM Beppe Marotta announced yesterday that Eriksen, linked with Arsenal and PSG, had been transfer-listed and Conte commented on the situation after victory over Hellas Verona.

"I congratulated Christian on the baby, and that was the most important thing. He asked if he could leave, and it was right that he should be close to his wife for this event," Conte explaine.

"In relation to the rest (a possible transfer), evaluations are made. Often the coach is on one side and the leader on the other, but things are always decided by common agreement.

"You often think that I want this and that, but that is definitely not the case. We do evaluations with the directors, and they are often the same.

"So we evaluate and say yes or no, and this summer we said no, for example. Now we analyse it again and do the same."
