Manchester United midfielder Christian Eriksen says it was Antonio Conte who transformed his positional game.

Conte and Eriksen won the Scudetto together at Inter Milan, with the Dane playing in a deeper role compared to his past with Tottenham.

He told Viaplay: "It has come naturally. It started when I moved to Italy, where Conte down there didn't like me as much as a 10, so I was pushed back a bit further.

"In the end it became my position and I have enjoyed it."

On his deeper role with United, Eriksen added: "When I came here, it was a bit of the same, where I tried to fit in and make the team play better. It's been the same, while I have played further forward, but in a different role."
