Al Jazeera
Danish FA says 29-year-old Eriksen has ‘accepted the solution’ after on-pitch collapse.
Danish footballer Christian Eriksen will have a heart defibrillator implanted after he suffered a cardiac arrest during his country’s Euro 2020 opener last weekend, the Danish Football Union (DBU) said on Thursday. The Inter Milan midfielder, 29, collapsed during Denmark’s game against Finland in Copenhagen. His life was saved when CPR was administered to him on the pitch and his heart was re-started with a defibrillator before he was taken to hospital, where he is recovering.More Related News
