Since Mourinho took over the reins, Eriksen has fallen out of the picture, registering just 11 minutes of top-flight action under the new manager, and a departure seems to be imminent.
It is now up to the club to decide whether to cash in on their outgoing playmaker in January or risk losing him for free at the end of the season.
Inter Milan and Juventus are reportedly leading the race for his signature, with Real Madrid still lurking in the shadows, while a potential switch to another Premier League club remains on the cards.
