Chelsea are in talks with Danish wonderkid Christian Eriksen, according to the Mirror.

The Ajax playmaker has been linked with a number of top European clubs since impressing in an international friendly match with England earlier in the season.

However, reports now suggest that Chelsea are in pole position to secure the signature of Eriksen who has netted seven goals this season despite his tender age of 19.

With a contract until 2014 though, Chelsea’s attempts to sign Eriksen may need a bid in advance of £20m.
