Christian Eriksen is no longer a Tottenham player but he remains a popular man among his former teammates, so it seems.
Hours after his transfer to Inter Milan was confirmed on Tuesday, Eriksen was bombarded with tributes from Spurs stars on Instagram.
Multiple players referred to him as “Maestro”, suggesting that Eriksen had a nickname – albeit a rather dull one – in the changing room.
Harry Winks and Lucas Moura both used the M-word in their tributes, while Jan Vertonghen simply wrote: “I’ll miss you bro”.
Michel Vorm had a similar message to Vertonghen’s. He typed: “We will miss you. What a player. Nothing but [blue heart emoji]”.
Toby Alderweield shared a photo of himself and Eriksen in formal clothing and captioned it: “We have shared so many special memories together at Spurs that I will always cherish. Good luck for the next chapter my friend”.
