A Tottenham fan has posted a video of themselves burning an old Christian Eriksen strip on social media after the Dane verbally agreed to join Manchester United.
Eriksen, who spent the second half of last season with Brentford, agreed to join Erik ten Hag at Manchester United after much speculation surrounding his next club having only joined the Bees on a six-month deal.
In an angry response to the Dane joining Tottenham's Premier League rivals, a fan has taken the ultimate step of choosing to burn a former kit with Eriksen on the back.
The fan then appeared to suggest, rather bizarrely, that they chose to set fire to the kit owing to a promise Eriksen made to Tottenham chief executive Daniel Levy that he would never play for another English club, a promise revealed by Sportsmail in 2017.
Manchester United will be the second English top flight club Eriksen will have played for since leaving Spurs.
The Denmark international joined fellow Dane Thomas Frank at Brentford last season after being forced to leave Inter Milan following rules in Serie A preventing him from playing in Italy due to his cardiac arrest playing for Denmark last summer.
The video, captioned 'a man of my word', shows the supporter's former Eriksen kit in a disposable roasting tray before they take a large lighter to the replica shirt.
A further tweet from the Spurs supporter revealed that they likely did it in response to Eriksen joining another English club.
'United fans thinking it's about them (as always) why would we start a rivalry with your dead club when we are so much better?' the fan tweeted.
Other Spurs fans did not take kindly to the incident on social media, however, with many calling out what they saw as a totally ridiculous piece of animosity towards a former player who they still hold in high regard.
'Man can't believe you guys call yourselves Spurs fans,' one tweeted.
While another wrote: 'We're better/classier than this.'
'What an odd thing to do. Brentford are as much of a rival as United to us. Delete this,' another wrote.
Fans also went on to question the supporter for burning it after he joined Manchester United, rather than when he arrived at Brentford earlier this year.
'So if it’s not about Manchester United why didn’t you burn it when he joined Brentford?' one queried.
Another bluntly remarked: 'He literally went to Brentford. So this statement is nonsense.'
