“I don’t want to sit on the bench for the whole season,” Eriksen said in a press conference with Denmark National team on Friday.

Inter star Christian Eriksen says he does not expect to sit on the bench for the rest of the season but admits he is living in a ‘new situation’.

“I don’t want to sit on the bench for the whole season,” Eriksen said in a press conference with Denmark National team on Friday.

“I hope this isn’t the coach’s or the club’s intention. It is going to be a busy season, lot of games in program, I expect to play.

“It’s never nice to sit on the bench and one tends to be less patient as his experience grows.”

Eriksen joined Inter on a €20m move from Tottenham in January but he has never been a regular starter under Antonio Conte, especially after the lockdown.

“There are many expectations on me, people thought I’d do the difference in every game, but it didn’t happen.

“That’s why they are looking at me with different eyes.

“I’ve had highs and lows after the lockdown. I had a great start with Inter after I arrived and now I am living in a new situation.”

According to reports in Italy, Eriksen turned down a chance to move to the Bundesliga rejecting loan offers from Borussia Dortmund and Hertha Berlin in the deadline day.

“I haven’t heard anything from my agent. There was nothing concrete. I am accustomed to media’s speculations but I can’t say which rumours are true and which are false. There was nothing concrete and Monday was a regular day for me because nothing happened.”
