Spurs legend Robinson: We must try & sell Eriksen

Tottenham must try and sell Christian Eriksen now if he continues to stall over signing a new contract, according to former Spurs goalkeeper Paul Robinson.

Robinson suspects Eriksen has already decided not to sign a new deal and has urged Spurs to sell the playmaker if he does not commit his future to the club.

"I'd be surprised if they do keep hold of him due to the fact that he still hasn't signed his contract that he has been offered," Robinson told Wednesday's Football Centre on Sky Sports News.

"He's made noises that he is ready for a new challenge. He's been at the club now for six years now and the fact that he hasn't signed a new contract going into his final year - I think it does have an effect on the team.

"I think it does have an effect on the players around him and I think genuinely if he did want to stay and his heart was there he would have signed it by now.

"The chairman has obviously put a price tag on his head [and] they have to get value for money. If he's not going to sign a contract then they have to cash in."
