Christian Eriksen stats season by season

The table shows league appearances and goals as well as the totals in all competitions for each season. Where he changed clubs mid-season, each club has its own row.

Appearances and goals in all competitions. Inter 2019–20 and Brentford 2021–22 count only his matches for that club in the season.

His most prolific season was 2017–18 at Tottenham, with 14 goals in all competitions, ten of them in the Premier League. He also reached ten league goals in 2014–15 and in his last full season at Ajax, 2012–13, when he scored 13 in total. From 2019 his goal tally fell as his role shifted from an attacking number 10 to a deeper central midfielder at Inter, Manchester United and Wolfsburg.

Christian Eriksen Premier League stats

Across his three English clubs he has played 310 Premier League matches and scored 55 league goals: 226 matches and 51 goals for Tottenham, 11 and 1 for Brentford, and 73 and 3 for Manchester United. These are the sums of the league columns in the season table above.

His 33rd Premier League goal, against West Ham on 23 September 2017, took him past Nicklas Bendtner as the Dane with the most goals in the competition.

Christian Eriksen assists – why the numbers differ

Assists are where sources agree least. Databases use different rules: some count only the final pass before a goal, while others also credit a shot that is saved and turned in on the rebound, or a free kick that is won. Two respected sites can therefore show different numbers for the same season, so we treat these figures as approximate.

According to ESPN he made around 78 Premier League assists: 62 for Tottenham, 4 for Brentford and 12 for Manchester United. ESPN’s figure for 2014–15 looks low, and other databases give more. ESPN’s Eredivisie data is incomplete, so we do not quote an assist number for his Ajax years.

Whatever the definition, two things are certain. In 2016–17 he made 15 Premier League assists, second only to Kevin De Bruyne’s 18. And he reached ten or more league assists in four consecutive seasons from 2015–16 to 2018–19, something only David Beckham had done before. In his single season at VfL Wolfsburg he made 10 assists in all competitions, nine of them in the Bundesliga.

The hat-trick against Ireland and his goals for Denmark

For Denmark he has 46 goals in 151 appearances. He is the most-capped player in the history of the men’s national team, having passed Simon Kjær with his 133rd cap against Serbia at Euro 2024. According to landsholdskortet.dk he is third on Denmark’s all-time scoring list behind Poul “Tist” Nielsen and Jon Dahl Tomasson, who both scored 52.

His best-known hat-trick came in Dublin on 14 November 2017, when Denmark won 5-1 against the Republic of Ireland in the second leg of the World Cup play-off to reach the 2018 finals. He scored 11 goals in that qualifying campaign. His first international goal came on 4 June 2011 in a 2-0 win in Reykjavik, and his latest, number 46, in the 5-0 win over Lithuania in Odense on 10 June 2025.
