Christian Eriksen was seen training with a ball during December last year and hopes to represent Denmark at the 2022 World Cup at Qatar.
Christian Eriksen has elucidated that he intends to return to playing football soon and represent Denmark at the forthcoming 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
Ever since he suffered from a cardiac arrest at Euro 2020, the Inter Milan star has been disallowed any action with the ball. He was also fitted with a defibrillator following his terrifying incident last year.
Eriksen has now become a free agent and hopes to get back to full fitness in the near future. In fact, the 29-year-old wants to show that he can still put his heart out for his national team in the coming major tournament.
What are his plans?
In an interview with a Danish TV, the midfielder said: “My goal is to play in the World Cup in Qatar. I want to play. That’s been my mindset all along. It’s a goal, a dream.”
“Whether I’ll be picked is another thing, but it’s my dream to come back. I’m sure I can come back because I don’t feel any different. Physically, I’m back in top shape. That’s been my goal and it’s still some time away. Until then, I’m just going to play football and prove that I’m back at the same level.”
“[The national team is] very important. I want to play on the national team in the World Cup. My dream is to rejoin the national team, play at Parken again. And prove that it was a one-timer and that it won’t happen again.”
“I want to prove I’ve moved on and that I can play on the national team again. Again, it’s up to the manager to assess my level, but my heart is not an obstacle.”
