The Dane waved to fans outside the medical centre in Milan and took a selfie with the crowd from the window.
Eriksen started his career in Denmark with Odense, but quickly moved to the Ajax youth academy in January 2009, before earning a €13.5m transfer to Tottenham in the summer of 2013.
His contract with Spurs was due to expire in June and he would’ve been available as a free agent, but Inter finally succumbed to Tottenham’s demands and paid the €20m, plus €1m solidarity fee (to go to his youth clubs) and the gate from a friendly between the two teams.
Although that might seem costly for a player with barely five months left on his contract, website Transfermarkt value Eriksen at €90m.
He had also been linked with Real Madrid, Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United last summer.
The midfielder turns 28 next month and has 95 senior caps for Denmark, scoring 31 goals.
