Here you will find photos of Christian Eriksen at Ajax, Tottenham, Brentford, Manchester United and with Denmark. Every picture comes from Wikimedia Commons under a free licence, and the photographer, the licence and a link to the source are shown under each one. We do not use agency photos, and we show no pictures of the 2021 cardiac arrest or of the match in Odense in June 2026.
Christian Eriksen photos from 2010 to 2022
The archive runs year by year. It starts with a portrait of an 18-year-old Eriksen in May 2010, the year he went to the World Cup in South Africa, and continues with Ajax in the Europa League in 2011, internationals in Reykjavik and at Euro 2012, and a long series of Tottenham matches from 2013 to 2017. The most recent pictures are from 2022: one of his last games for Brentford and his Manchester United debut against Brighton.
We have not yet found free-licence photos of good enough quality from his years at Inter and VfL Wolfsburg. We add to the archive when new free pictures appear. For the story behind the pictures, read our Christian Eriksen biography.
Photo rights: free licences, no agency pictures
Almost all professional football photos are owned by photo agencies or by the clubs and may only be used with permission and against payment. That is why we use only pictures from Wikimedia Commons, where the photographer has released the image under a Creative Commons licence or into the public domain. The licences in our archive are CC BY, CC BY-SA and CC0.
- CC BY: you may use the picture, including commercially, if you credit the photographer, the licence and the source.
- CC BY-SA: as CC BY, but if you crop or otherwise change the picture, your version must be shared under the same licence.
- CC0: the photographer has waived the rights, but we still credit the source.
A correct credit can look like this: “Photo: photographer’s name / Wikimedia Commons, CC BY-SA 2.0”, with a link to the picture’s page on Commons. That is the format we use under every photo in the archive. Always check the picture’s own page before using it, because that is where the licence is stated.
Several of our pictures are cropped, and the credit says so. A free licence does not mean anything goes: a photo of a well-known person must not be used in a way that suggests he endorses a product, and club crests are protected trademarks. Read more about how we work in our editorial policy.
Where to find official photos of Christian Eriksen
The official match photos are held by the clubs and by the Danish FA. The clubs’ websites and social media have galleries from his time at Ajax, Tottenham, Inter, Brentford, Manchester United and VfL Wolfsburg, and the DBU shares pictures from Denmark’s matches and camps on dbu.dk and its own channels. Christian Eriksen also uses Instagram, where in October 2026 he announced that he had become a father for the third time. His posts are his own, and we do not reproduce them.
Broadcasters and newspapers usually use agency pictures they have paid for. If you want to use a press photo yourself, contact the agency or the photographer and buy a licence.
Christian Eriksen posters and official merchandise
Posters with official pictures are usually sold by the clubs’ shops and their licensed partners, and Denmark merchandise through the DBU and the national team’s kit supplier. As he is currently without a club, the range of official products featuring him may be limited. We do not link to retailers.
If you want to hang one of the free Commons pictures at home, you may print it under the licence terms – credit the photographer and the licence, on a print too. Note that many Commons files are too low in resolution for a large poster. His shirts and numbers through his career are covered on our page on Christian Eriksen’s boots and shirt numbers.
Christian Eriksen autographs – how to avoid fakes
The safest way to get a genuine Christian Eriksen autograph is in person, for example at a match, a training session or an event where players sign for fans. Signed shirts and photos also appear at charity auctions run by clubs and organisations. If you buy an autograph online, be critical: a certificate of authenticity is only as credible as whoever issued it.
Through his agent, he asked in September 2026 for respect for his and his family’s privacy. We therefore publish no addresses and do not forward fan mail. Please do not seek him out privately – use official events.
