Christian Eriksen is working on his football fairy tale.
The Dane is facing a Premier League return after suffering cardiac arrest.
London - He is coming home!
Christian Eriksen has apparently found a new club - in the English Premier League.
The Danish midfield star, who suffered a cardiac arrest on the field at the EM 2021, is moving to London according to information from the English media.
Eriksen knows the capital very well, having played there for most of his professional career.
The Dane played for Tottenham Hotspur from 2013 to 2020, where he matured into a world-class playmaker.
He then joined Inter Milan in January 2020, but now has no future with the Nerazzurri.
Because: Competitive sport with a defibrillator used is prohibited in Italy.

The cheeky newcomer from West London delighted football fans at the start of the season, but recently things have gone downhill steeply.
Will Eriksen now turn the tide?
According to the well-informed portal
The Athletic
, the 109-cap international has agreed to a six-month contract with an option for a further season.
An official confirmation was still pending on Monday.
