On the 26th, Newcastle defeated Brentford 2-0 in the Premier League relegation battle. However, compared to the game, Eriksen came off the bench for Brentford to be more sensational.The Danish star, who almost died suddenly at last year's European Cup, finally returned to the pitch after 259 days.
On June 12 last year, Eriksen, who represented the Danish national team in the European Cup, suddenly fell to the ground without colliding with anyone in the group match against Finland. Fortunately, the captain Kjaer responded in time. Gold performed extracardiac pressure first aid for Erickson in one minute, and the 10-minute rescue by the on-site medical staff helped Erickson, whose heart stopped for a time, regained consciousness, and was then sent to the hospital for medical treatment to save his life.
Erickson later recalled that he had asked paramedics to take his football boots as a souvenir in the ambulance because he felt that he could no longer play football and no longer needed football boots.
However, a miracle happened in the end. After active treatment and the implantation of an automatic defibrillator in the heart, Erickson returned to normal state and rekindled the idea of returning to the green field. However, it is impossible to return to his old club, Inter Milan. Since Serie A stipulates that players with implanted defibrillators are all banned from participating in the Italian professional league, Eriksen has terminated the contract with Inter Milan ahead of schedule.
In order to restore his fitness and form, Eriksson once trained with the Danish team Odense BK - this is his home team when he debuted and the starting point of his career. Since then, another team that Eriksen has played for lends a helping hand - the Dutch giants Ajax. After that, Eriksen came to Amsterdam to train with the Ajax youth team.
Join Brentford and return to the Premier League
On January 31 this year, the Premier League team Brentford announced that the 29-year-old Danish midfielder Eriksen joined the team on a free transfer and has signed a contract until the summer. According to cab사이트 reports, the contract comes with a one-year extension option.
Although Eriksen is Brentford's biggest star, although the team's recent record is poor and there is pressure to avoid relegation, it has been almost a month since joining, and Brentford has never arranged Eriksen in the official game. Go into battle.
Obviously, in order to ensure that there are no accidents, the club is quite cautious. For Eriksen, Brentford arranged two closed-door friendlies for Eriksen during the month to let him re-adjust to the rhythm of the football field. Rickson not only adapts easily, but also continuously contributes assists, showing his personal ability and experience on the field.
Returning to the Premier League has always been Eriksson's dream. After all, the best period of his career was spent with Tottenham in the Premier League. His agent had previously admitted that returning to the Premier League was Eriksen's priority, "he thought. Go home." One of Brentford's strengths is that, like Tottenham, they are a London team.
In addition, Brentford's Danish coach Thomas Frank, who worked with Eriksen years ago, knows his abilities well. Eriksen was one of them when he coached the Denmark U17 youth team. In addition, Brentford also has as many as 8 Danish players including Norgaard, Jensen, Rasmussen and Zanka, many of whom are Eriksen's national team teammates.
