Manchester United have signaled their summer ambitions by approaching Tottenham ace Christian Eriksen.

AS says Eriksen has been 'made aware' of interest from United.

United touched base with his agent last week, however, if he leaves Spurs he would rather a move to Real Madrid.

United will need to strengthen in midfield with the expected departures of Juan Mata and Ander Herrera who are both out of contract this summer.

Eriksen has just over a year to run on his current deal.
