The future of Christian Eriksen has already become a major talking point after a disappointing campaign came to an end.

The former Manchester United midfielder endured relegation from the Bundesliga with Wolfsburg during the 2025/26 season.

It was a difficult year for the German club.

They are now preparing for life in the second tier after a dramatic collapse.

Eriksen only joined Wolfsburg last summer following the expire of his United contract.

At the time, the Denmark international opted for a move to Germany despite reported interest from elsewhere.

One club he famously turned down was Wrexham.

The Red Dragons were preparing for life in the Championship and hoped to convince the experienced midfielder to join their ambitious project.

Now, however, Christian Eriksen could be on the move again.

According to German outlet Bild, Wolfsburg are preparing for a significant squad overhaul following relegation.

Several players are expected the leave as the club looks to reduce costs and reshape the squad for next season.

Among those mentioned is Eriksen.

Bild report that the 34-year-old is unlikely to remain at the club.

He has already attracted interest from a former club ahead of the summer transfer window.

That club is Ajax.

The Dutch giants are said to be monitoring Eriksen’s situation as they explore possible additions to their squad.

A return would represent a homecoming for the midfielder.

He spent four successful years in Amsterdam before moving to Tottenham Hotspur.

Eriksen made 162 appearances for Ajax during the first stage of his senior career.

He scored 32 goals for them and established himself as one of Europe’s most talented young midfielders.

Since then, he has enjoyed spells with Tottenham Hotspur, Inter Milan, Manchester United and Wolfsburg.

Whether Ajax formalise their interest remains to be seen.

However, the report suggests Eriksen could be one of several high-profile departures from Wolfsburg this summer.

For the former Premier League star, a return to familiar surrounding may now be one option on the table as he considers the next chapter of his career.
