Highly-rated Ajax playmaker Christian Eriksen insists he is unconcerned by the ongoing speculation surrounding his future.[LNB] The 19-year-old Denmark international is thought to have turned heads across Europe after a breakthrough campaign in Amsterdam last season. [LNB]Eriksen was linked with a move to Liverpool in the January transfer window, while Manchester City are thought to have the teenager on their radar this summer. [LNB]The Dane's agent said last week that he had snubbed a proposed move to City in favour of staying at Ajax, a claim which the Premier League club strenuously denied. [LNB]Manchester United and Real Madrid are two other European giants believed to be interested in the youngster, who has also established himself on the international stage over the past year. [LNB]But despite constantly finding himself at the centre of transfer talk, Eriksen says he is calm over his future and happy at Ajax for the time being. [LNB]"I don't feel the pressure. I'm getting used to it now," he told Sky Sports News following Denmark's friendly defeat to Scotland on Wednesday night. [LNB]"A lot of clubs are following me but you know when they follow you it's because it's going well. [LNB]"I hope it's going to go on until I play at a new club, but right now I'm at Ajax and I'm very happy there."
