Tottenham Hotspur - Antonio Conte on Christian Eriksen: "The door is always open for him"

Team manager Antonio Conte goes on the offensive in courting the Danish international Christian Eriksen. Eriksen, who suffered cardiac arrest at the European Championships in the summer and was “dead for five minutes” according to his own statement, can train with the English first division club Tottenham Hotspur at any time, said Conte: “It’s great that he can play football again. For him is the door always open. “

The 29-year-old, who dreams of participating in the World Cup in Qatar this winter, was most recently under contract with Inter Milan. Due to a rule in Italy that prohibits playing with a defibrillator in place, the midfielder cannot continue his career there.

Despite the dramatic events, Eriksen’s doctors apparently consider a return to be realistic, and competitive sports are therefore also possible with a defibrillator. Allegedly clubs from Denmark, the Netherlands and England are interested in signing.

Eriksen knows Conte from common times at Inter Milan. There the two won the title together last season. Eriksen played for Spurs from 2013 to 2020 before moving to Italy.
