Williamson has disclosed that Eriksen turned down the Welsh club’s approach in the summer window as they attempted to build a side that would be worthy of climbing out of the Championship and into the Premier League.
After suffering a cardiac arrest while playing for Denmark at Euro 2020, Eriksen was a free agent following his departure from Old Trafford and was looking for a new adventure before the season began.
However, speaking on That Wrexham Podcast, Williamson explained why Eriksen was not the right fit as his agent believed that they would add him as more of a narrative rather than a player.
"I reached out to the agent and what was really interesting in the first call is the reaction was, 'We don't want his story to be in a documentary, because we've had plenty of opportunities for a documentary for his story.'
“He thought we were calling not because of his footballing capabilities, but because we wanted a documentary story. I'm like, 'Wait a minute. I didn't even think about that'.
"Obviously, I'm aware of it, but that wasn't the reason we were calling. We were calling because he could potentially be an interesting footballer, we're looking for players that could play for us in the Championship.
“Difference makers that could help us be competitive on the pitch. After I explained what our actual objectives were, trying to build a competitive squad and that I wasn't even thinking about it from a documentary perspective, we had a great conversation."
The Dane instead opted to join Bundesliga side VfL Wolfsburg and has since found his feet after making several appearances so far.
