Former Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Christian Eriksen appears to be making his way to a return to the pitch.
After suffering a cardiac arrest at Euro 2020 while playing for Denmark, the 29-year-old could make a return to group training by the end of this month. Eriksen’s representative, Martin Schoots, spoke to Sportsmail and provided an update on the playing status.
“It is going really well for Christian,” Schoots said. “He had all the checks just before Christmas, and the results were so good that we expect him to be involved in a group training with a team sometime later in January.
“But I would prefer Christian to talk about this himself, and he will do so very soon.”
Eriksen recently had his deal with Inter Milan terminated by mutual consent after the midfielder had an ICD (implantable cardioverter-defibrillator) implanted into him to regulate his heartbeat.
The Daily Mail also reports that the former Tottenham midfielder is garnering interest from Premier League clubs when Eriksen is fit to see the pitch. There are no specific details as to which clubs are interested; nonetheless, a return to a league he’s familiar with seems like an ideal move.
The Denmark has plenty of experience in England’s top-flight league. In 305 appearances with Spurs, he scored 69 goals while registering 90 assists.
