Burnley launch shock move for ex-Man Utd ace

Per the Daily Mail, Burnley are trying to sign Eriksen after his exit from United. The Denmark international left the club at the end of last season, and has already rejected the chance to play for Wrexham. 

The 33-year-old has received multiple offers this summer, per the report, with Jose Mourinho's Fenerbahce, Besiktas, and Trabzonspor all interested. Eriksen would prefer to stay in western Europe, though, and Burnley are hoping to convince him to return to the Premier League. German and Spanish clubs are also looking at the playmaker.

Burnley have already pulled off a significant coup by signing Kyle Walker from Manchester City. The club were automatically promoted last season and are aiming to buck a recent trend by staying up. 

Burnley will aim to get Eriksen through the door, if he is open to the move, before their first game of the Premier League season against Tottenham.
