The football player Christian Eriksen doesn’t want any special treatment on his next return to the club’s top tier at Brentford in the English Premier League. “I told my teammates there’s no reason for it“said the Dane, who suffered a cardiac arrest on June 12 during the Euro match between Denmark and Finland.
“No one needs to be careful with me“said the former Ajax, Tottenham and Inter Milan player.”If they did, I would never step onto a pitch again. I only dare embark on this adventure because I have been declared 100% cured. Doctors have no doubts. That’s why I’m not afraid.“
Eriksen said he also spoke with the Dutchman Daley Blind, who also suffered from heart problems and now plays with a defibrillator. “His experiences also gave me a lot of confidence“, said the Dane.
Eriksen has not played since his heart attack. He was released from his contract by Inter Milan in December and found a new employer in January in Brentford who is coached by compatriot Thomas Frank.
