EPL: Eriksen breaks silence on Tottenham team-mate Vertonghen sleeping with his wife

Christian Eriksen has hit back at rumours, that his wife had affair with his Tottenham team-mate, Jan Vertonghen.

Both Eriksen and Vertonghen took to Twitter today, to slam the gossip which emerged over the weekend.

A tweet was posted alongside pictures of both players, alleging a rift between the Spurs stars.

It read: “Tottenham Hotspur FC. Jan Vertonghen caught sleeping with Christian Eriksen wife. Harry Kane got involved, big dressing room bust up.

“Club refusing to offer Vertonghen a new contract. Eriksen was due to join Real Madrid but personal reasons stopped the deal.

“Half the players not taking [sic] to each other, Eriksen said he’s not in a good place to play football.

“Pochettino unable to resolve the situation, likely to join Real Madrid in the summer and take Eriksen with him and possibly Kane.”

Erkisen, who is actually not married, shot down the claim, quote-tweeting the post with the response: “bulls***”.

Vertonghen also responded to tweet with three fed-up face emojis, in response to the allegation and a love heart to show his support for Eriksen.

Eriksen and Sabrina Kvist Jensen began dating in 2012 and live in London with their young son.
