Top 5 transfers in January: Looking at Europe's top five leagues

#3 Serie A (Inter Milan) - Christian Eriksen

Eriksen adds further depth to Antonio Conte's squad at Inter Milan.

The arrival of Christian Eriksen in Italy had been much awaited as Tottenham and Inter Milan could not agree on a fee for the transfer to go through as the player had already agreed to personal terms with the Serie A club.

Eriksen had been linked to a host of clubs like Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid since last summer as he was entering the final year of his contract at Tottenham. It was initially rumoured that Eriksen would join Inter on a free transfer next summer but the Denmark international wanted to leave in January itself and henceforth negotiations took quite of time.

He finally joined Inter Milan on a four-and-a-half year deal till 2024 for a fee of €20 million. The 27-year-old is entering his peak years and might turn out to be a bargain signing for Antonio Conte in the long run.

He's a very versatile player and his creativity can be of great help to Conte to flex his tactics further and challenge for titles in Italy and Europe once again.
