Danish ace would prefer switch to Spain over England move

Ajax ace Christian Eriksen has revealed his interest in playing in Spain's top flight ahead of England's Premier League. The Denmark international has reportedly been attracting interest from Manchester City and Manchester United, along with Spanish giants Barcelona. Eriksen was recently asked whether he fancied a switch to big-spending City, but he labelled the potential move a risk as he did not want to warm the club's bench. When quizzed whether he would prefer a move to England or Spain, he stated that the style of play in Spain suited his game while he is also attracted by the warmer climate. "Yes (Spain) appeals more to me. The playing style and weather is more attractive," he told Ekstra Bladet. "I believe I would fit better in Spain. But maybe I will be a big bodybuilder suitable for Premier League in one or two years. It's hard to know."
