Overview

• Malmö confirmed the 33-year-old Denmark international joined first-team sessions on Thursday to maintain fitness, describing it as training rather than a transfer.
• Sporting director Daniel Andersson called the arrangement a bit of fun and said Eriksen’s presence can inspire players, adding the club’s priority remains upcoming matches.
• With Sweden’s registration window closed and Malmö’s Europa League list already submitted, Eriksen would be unavailable for domestic games without dispensation and could not play in Europe until early 2026.
• Reports note a potential deal could be hard to justify financially if Eriksen cannot feature in European competition, given he would command a high salary.
• Denmark manager Brian Riemer left Eriksen out of the latest squad, citing his lack of recent club training after his Manchester United contract expired in June.
