The move would see him return to the club he spent six-and-a-half years at between 2013 and 2020.
It would also enable him to reunite with Antonio Conte, the boss he won Serie A playing under in Italy.
Man United, meanwhile, would like to bring him in to work with new boss Erik ten Hag.
The signing of Eriksen would bolster a midfield that has lost Paul Pogba, Juan Mata, Jesse Lingard and Nemanja Matic on free transfers already this summer.
