Milan, 8 June (LaPresse) – "I want to tell everyone that I’m fine and that I’m at home with my family. I want to reassure everyone that this is a different situation from what happened in 2021. I feel fine and my recovery period has already begun.‘ This was stated by Danish midfielder Christian Eriksen, who collapsed on the pitch yesterday during the international match against Ukraine, in an Instagram post. ’I want to thank all the players and the medical staff on the pitch for their support; I am also incredibly grateful to all the doctors who have looked after me and my heart over the years. Thanks to them, my pacemaker did exactly what it was supposed to do: protect me when it was needed,‘ he added, referring to the treatment he received and the subcutaneous defibrillator he carries. ’Now my focus is on recovery and spending time with my family over the holidays," he concluded.
