After his Euro collapse, Christian Eriksen is ready to return to the big football stage.

FC Bayern is allegedly interested in the Dane.

Odense - Few thoughts were wasted on a possible comeback when Christian Eriksen collapsed on June 12 at the European Championship match between Denmark and Finland *.

In the end, one message stood above all: the Danish playmaker has escaped death.

But a good six months later, Eriksen actually wants to attack again.

His big goal: The World Cup in Qatar *.

He is now equipped with a defibrillator, but he had to terminate his contract with Inter Milan because it is forbidden to play with one in the Italian Serie A *.

For some time he has been keeping fit at his youth club Odense BK and is looking for a new club.

Christian Eriksen is aiming for the World Cup in Qatar: "I want to play"

“My goal is to be at the World Cup in Qatar.

I want to play, ”announced the 29-year-old in an interview with Danish Broadcasting Corporation (DR).

Really not an easy undertaking, because for that he needs match practice at the top level.

He is also aware of that.

"It's a Dream.

Whether I will then be nominated is another matter.

But it's my dream to come back. "

Eriksen is convinced that his heart is not an obstacle.

He had written off his career when he was brought to the hospital by the paramedics who had saved his life after the cardiac arrest.

“In the ambulance I thought: keep my shoes.

It's over.

I won't play football anymore, ”he remembers.

FC Bayern: Christian Eriksen before professional comeback in Munich?

One thing is now clear: Eriksen needs match practice for a comeback, and at the highest possible level.

His ex-clubs Ajax Amsterdam and Tottenham Hotspur * are possible candidates, and there are rumors that AS Monaco have already put out their feelers.

Tottenham coach Antonio Conte offered him a training session: "The door is always open for him."

Mads Junker, football expert at Danish broadcaster TV2, brings three other clubs into play.

In addition to Manchester United and Paris St. Germain, he also has FC Bayern * as a possible buyer.

He sees room for Eriksen in the central midfield, where Leon Goretzka and Joshua Kimmich have little competition.

However, it is not very likely that Munich will take action here and try to recruit Eriksen.

“For the first time in my life” the Dane is currently unemployed.

If he continues to work on his fitness, the World Cup dream could definitely come true.
