BORUSSIA DORTMUND have reportedly joined the race for Inter Milan flop Christian Eriksen.
Italian outlet TuttoMercatoWeb claim the Bundesliga giants launched a loan move for the former Spurs star in October.

Eriksen ultimately stayed at Inter but the report adds that Dortmund could return for the Denmark international in January.
The 28-year-old has also been linked with a return to England after falling out favour under Antonio Conte.
SunSport previously reported that Manchester United were interested in a potential swap deal involving Brazilian midfielder Fred.
The Red Devils were linked with Eriksen during his time at Tottenham but already have Bruno Fernandes, Paul Pogba, Donny van de Beek, Juan Mata and Jesse Lingard as attacking midfielders.
Paris Saint-Germain could also be the Dane’s next step with Leandro Paredes the midfielder Inter want in exchange.
Eriksen has played just 301 minutes of football under Conte so far this season and is yet to register a goal or an assist.
And Inter have since put clubs on red alert by admitting they will not stand in the playmaker’s way if he wants to go in January.
Ahead of the Nerazzurri’s 4-2 win against Torino on Sunday, club chief Beppe Marotta stated Eriksen can leave the San Siro if he wants next year.
Marotta, 63, told DAZN: “Christian is acting like a professional but in January we’ll decide about his future.
“There are no advanced talks with any club at the moment, we’ll see in the next few weeks.
“Conte has answered exhaustively about him. We must not detain a player if he asks to be transferred.”
