Manchester United are again being linked with Tottenham ace Christian Eriksen.

El Desmarque says United are hoping to tempt Tottenham chief Daniel Levy into a quick sale with a £42million bid.

Old Trafford chiefs joined Real Madrid and Juventus in the hunt for the Denmark playmaker last summer.

Levy is said to have a gentleman's agreement with the Dane that he will not move to another English club.

But the prospect of banking £40m-plus just five months before he would leave on a free could convince Levy to sell to United
