Real Madrid have been rattled in the midfield department this season, and their defense has not stood up when they needed them the most this campaign. It has been a painful start, and Florentino Perez has already started to look at the possible replacements.
Christian Eriksen has been one of the best attacking midfielders over the last few years. Since joining Spurs, he has thrived under the management of Mauricio Pochettino who has the habit of nurturing players.
19 – Christian Eriksen has scored 19 goals from outside the box in the Premier League; the most of any player in the competition since his debut (September 2013). Precision.

Christian Eriksen has amassed 251 appearances since signing for the club in 2012. He has an eye on the goal, scoring 62 times and assisting on 78 occasions.
Barcelona chose to sign Philippe Coutinho instead of the Danish International last January, which would mean that Real Madrid are the only genuine contender interested to secure his services.
