Christian Eriksen visits Old Trafford primary school with MU Foundation

After a delightful morning engaging with the youngsters, Christian said: “It’s amazing to be at the school and see all the kids and what they’ve been doing with the Foundation. The children and their parents come to the stadium and watch games, they give encouragement to us on the pitch, so by coming into the local community and meeting the children, it’s a really nice thing to do. It’s very important for me to give back as a Manchester United player – I’m very pleased to be here.”

Headteacher Tina Birds reiterated the impact of the visit: “It has been a wonderful day. Seeing the children’s reactions to Christian Eriksen walking through, participating in the activities that Manchester United Foundation were doing – it was absolutely amazing. I will remember it as a headteacher for a long, long time.
