bundesliga news: Eriksen to sign for Wolfsburg

Christian Eriksen is closing in on a deal with Wolfsburg which would see him brought to the Bundesliga, kicker reports.

Since his contract with English giants Manchester United expired in the summer, numerous big clubs all over Europe have been in the race for Eriksen’s signature, though none – as of yet – have had any success.

That was until kicker concurred with what Danish outlet Tipsbladet had reported; that a Bundesliga switch to join Wolfsburg was not only on the cards for the Danish international, but also incredibly likely.

Eriksen, who has been at Manchester United since July 2022, enjoyed a solid farewell 2024/25 campaign in England, netting five times and assisting six in 35 appearances across all competitions.

A seasoned international veteran, Eriksen has 144 total caps for Denmark, across which he has scored 46 goals, making him both the most capped player and the third-most prolific goalscorer in the nation’s history.

At Wolfsburg, he will be joining an ever-growing cohort of Danish talent including Jonas Wind, Joakim Mæhle, Jesper Lindstrøm, Adam Daghim, and Andreas Skov Olsen.Following the appointment of fellow Dane Kasper Hjulmand to the head coach position at Bayer Leverkusen, rumours had emerged linking Eriksen to Die Werkself.

However, it looks as though he will now join a Bundesliga rival instead, with the hopes of getting enough game time to be selected to travel with Denmark to the 2026 FIFA World Cup no doubt a factor.

That being said, he was not included in coach Brian Riemer’s squad for the two most recent qualifiers against Scotland (0–0) and in Greece (3–0).
