"Thank you to everyone, I will not give up", can we read on the front page of the Gazzetta dello Sport, this Monday.
These are the first words of Christian Eriksen, since the cardiac alert suffered by the Danish player shortly before the Denmark-Finland half-time on Saturday evening and his rescue thanks to the promptness of the rescue services.
The Italian sports daily reports the remarks made by Eriksen to his coach Kasper Hjulmand, who was able to discuss with his player on Sunday.
“I'm fine, but I want to know what happened, the midfielder would have added.
I want to thank you all for what you have done for me.
"
Proof that the convalescent quickly finds his means, Eriksen began to gently chamber his comrades of the selection, who lost 1-0 against Finland, when the match resumed in the evening of Saturday.
“He was worried about us,” Hjulmand said.
He asked us:
How are you?
I think you are in worse shape than me!
I am now ready to train!

Martin Schoots, the player's agent and friend, also chatted with Eriksen on Sunday.
"He joked, he was in a good mood, I thought he was good," Schoots reports.
We all want to understand what happened to him first.
Doctors do thorough examinations, it will take time.
"
According to his agent, Eriksen is already more than lucid enough to show his gratitude to all the people who have come forward since Saturday. “He was happy because he understood how much love he received,” says Schoots. Messages reached him from all over the world. And he was particularly impressed with those coming from the Inter Milan environment. Not only his teammates he heard through a chat, but the fans too. Christian does not give up. He and his family want their thanks to go out to everyone. "
As for the rest, Eriksen does not intend to go on forever in his hospital room. “Now he just needs to rest,” says Schoots. His wife and parents are with him. He will remain under observation tomorrow
