Christian Eriksen offers reassurance after collapse, says situation different to 2021 | OneFootball

Christian Eriksen said he is well and back home after collapsing during Denmark’s friendly against Ukraine on Sunday, adding that the situation was different to 2021. The player said in an Instagram post on Monday.

The 34-year-old explained that he felt fine and had returned to his family. He referred to the cardiac episode he suffered during Euro 2020 against Finland, stressing this latest incident was not the same.

Eriksen said a shock from his subcutaneous defibrillator had a considerable impact on him, but the device worked exactly as intended to protect him.

He added that his focus now is on recovery, spending time with his family, going on holiday and playing football with his children.

No details have been provided on the precise nature of Sunday’s episode or any implications for his career.
