Almost eight months after suffering a heart attack during the Denmark-Finland (0-1) match for the EURO, Christian Eriksen returns to active action.

The Danish midfielder, who was released by Inter, as the relevant legislation in Italy does not allow defibrillated players to play in the country, has signed a cooperation contract with Brentford and is returning to the top level.

The 29-year-old ace, who knows the English championship very well from his tenure at Tottenham, agreed with the “bees” for the next six months, while the financial part was not announced.

“Brentford can confirm the acquisition of the Danish international midfielder, Christian Eriksen, subject to the permission of international players. The 29-year-old signed his contract after completing the medical evaluation. He has signed until the end of the 2021/22 season “, is mentioned in the relevant announcement of the English club, which was promoted to the Premier League this year.

“I’m looking forward to starting and I hope to see you all very soon,” Eriksen said in a video posted on Twitter, while Brentford coach Thomas Frank, who has worked with the experienced ace on the Danish U17 national team, commented: “I look forward to working with Christian again. It has been a long time since I last coached him and a lot has happened since then. We took advantage of an incredible opportunity to bring a world-class player to Brentford. He has not trained with a team for seven months, but has done a lot of work on his own. “I look forward to seeing him work with the players and the staff to return to the highest level.”
