Eriksen is ready for a big move.

"This is the right time for him to go," Olsen told Danish newspaper Ekstra Bladet. "There are many players who moved to a top club too early, but Christian is really ready.

"He played great against Borussia Dortmund, Manchester City, PSV and Feyenoord this season, so maybe that's where Dortmund's interest stems from."

Despite admitting that talks had begun with Dortmund regarding a move to the Bundesliga side, Eriksen has since revealed that Liverpool remain an option.

"Dortmund is one of the options that will be really good for me," Eriksen told sporten.dk. "But it is not the only option, but it is certainly a possibility.

"If there is something exciting, I would like to go but if not then I don't mind staying.

"I have read and Liverpool is definitely an option. It is also one of the clubs you'll weight higher than Amsterdam, and it's a different league and a different calibre.

"It sounds very exciting, but we have to look at it if there is something I do not know if there is anything specific, and I've even talked to Daniel [Agger] about it."
