The 34-year-old former Manchester United star briefly lost consciousness during a friendly international between Denmark and Ukraine on June 8, an event that led to the match's abandonment and renewed fears for his health. Eriksen reassured supporters that this latest incident was "a different situation from what happened in 2021”, when he famously suffered a cardiac arrest during the delayed Euro 2020 tournament. Wolfsburg confirmed the rehabilitation plans, stating they are in regular contact with Eriksen and the doctors overseeing his treatment, wishing him the very best with his recovery. Eriksen expressed gratitude for his implanted cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD), which he said "did exactly what it was designed to do: protect me when I needed it”, and is now focusing on recovery and spending time with his family.
