With only one year remaining on his contract, Eriksen’s future with the club is uncertain, as he has started just one Premier League game for United this season.

The Dane insisted he had no intention of leaving unless the club wanted him out, and United turned down Real Betis’ last-ditch attempt to recruit him in the summer transfer window.

Following his two goals in United’s 7-0 Carabao Cup victory over Barnsley, Eriksen expressed his satisfaction with his current position to media.I would have left if they had told me to, but I didn’t get that message.

That has always been and will always be my goal—being a guy who enjoys living in a place where my family is settled while also being able to benefit and play.

Eriksen said, “It’s difficult to ask the manager in the off-season how many minutes I’m going to get in a season,” when asked if he had discussed his role with Erik ten Hag as a team member. This season is going to be a real drag if he begins guaranteeing players minutes.Put your chin down, put in your time, and give your all to every game; there was no such thing as talking.

“I’m going to give this year my all and see what happens afterward; there’s only one more year.”

The 32-year-old was back in the starting lineup for last weekend’s 3-0 league victory against Southampton and is looking forward to riding the wave of confidence as United prepare to take on Crystal Palace in London on Saturday.

I’m hoping we can hold on to it because it’s important. Our goal now is to maintain this consistency, he stated, even though it’s only two games and two wins.

Winning games and having a positive attitude before each game is more important than scoring a lot of goals each game, though it would be great, too. Over the weekend, I’d love to keep that going.
