Real Madrid: 4 cheaper alternatives to Paul Pogba that Los Blancos should consider

#1 Christian Eriksen

Tottenham Hotspur v Everton FC - Premier League

Over the last six years, Christian Eriksen has gone on to become one of the best attacking midfielders not just in the Premier League, but also anywhere in the world.

The Danish international is blessed with wonderful vision and technique wile his passing ability is right up there with the best in the world possessing an innate ability to play teammates in with his pin-point passing accuracy.

However, for all of his talents, the 27-year-old has a rather scanty medal collection to show, while Totttenham's wage cap means he is not paid on par with players of similar or even less abilities to him.

Speculations have emerged that Real Madrid are interested in his servicesc and with his value estimated to be worth €85m, he would undoubtedly be a cheaper and more effective alternative to Paul Pogba and the Spanish giants should do all in their power to sign him.
