Pundit Jamie Carragher claims that Real Madrid should not consider signing Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Christian Eriksen.

Pundit Jamie Carragher has claimed that Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Christian Eriksen is 'not good enough' to play for Real Madrid.

With less than a year remaining on his contract, the Denmark international is being linked with a switch to the Bernabeu during one of the next two transfer windows.

However, after the playmaker produced another ineffective display against Liverpool on Sunday, Carragher dismissed the possibility of the 27-year-old being a success at Los Blancos.

Carragher told Sky Sports News: "Eriksen for me is a really good player for Tottenham , but he keeps getting talked about as this player who could play for Real Madrid. He's not good enough.

"If he's that good, he's got a year to go in his contract, you'd pay money for him. People keep saying maybe on a free transfer, you'd have anyone on a free transfer. This summer he wanted to go, he made it known, he said it publicly, and no one came in for him.

"I think Eriksen has been fantastic for Spurs but he's not better than Spurs. He might go to PSG, he might go to another club, but he won't make any of them better."

Eriksen has contributed just one goal and one assist in all competitions this season.
