Brentford have signed former Tottenham midfielder Christian Eriksen on a six-month agreement.
Eriksen has not played since suffering a cardiac arrest during Denmark’s game versus Finland at Euro 2020 last June.
He was afterwards fitted with an implanted cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) – a type of pacemaker.
“We have taken an unbelievable opportunity to bring a world-class player to Brentford” head coach Thomas Frank stated.
He triumphed the league title with Inter Milan last season, however the Italians and Eriksen concurred to cancel his agreement in December as players fitted with an ICD cannot compete in Serie A.
He united with Inter in 2020 after a seven-year spell at Tottenham, during which he scored 69 goals in 305 matches and assisted the club reach the 2019 Champions League final.
