Did passed away
Christian Ericsson has thanked football fans around the world for the support they have shown him since his horrific collapse at Euro 2020, where he says he “died for five minutes” on the pitch.
The Denmark star suffered a cardiac arrest during his side’s game with Finland in Copenhagen, an incident that led to disturbing scenes as medics sought to revive him in front of scared fans.
Heart attack
Denmark international Christian Eriksen will return to the Premier League on Saturday, just eight months after he fell on the pitch at the European Championships of Football. The 30-year-old will be the first top-flight player to be fitted with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD), which can reset the heart after cardiac arrest.
“I was gone from this world for five minutes,” Ericsson told the BBC in an interview this month.
Denmark was playing Finland in their opening game of the Euros last summer when one of the world’s best midfielders suddenly collapsed.
He was given CPR, and an automated external defibrillator (AED) was used to reset his heart so that it could pump blood properly again.
It was suggested at the time that Ericsson’s professional career might be over.
