Eriksen has played pretty much every game over the past 6 seasons; playing 50 games a season (and that's excluding friendlies and internationals). Poch famously has a very intense training regime.
I don't think it is a surprise that he is exhausted and fancies a change of scene.
Maybe the solution to these problems in future is to allow players on long contracts to take a sabbatical. Let them finish the season in June and return to training in mid October; ready to rejoin starting 11 in the new year.
