MOSCOW, Apr 24 The new head coach of the English football club Manchester United Erik ten Hag is interested in acquiring Brentford and Denmark midfielder Christian Eriksen, Sky Sport reports. The Danish footballer's current contract with Brentford runs until the end of the season with the possibility of an extension for another year. It was previously officially announced that Dutchman Erik ten Hag will become the new head coach of Manchester United after the season ends. He will replace the interim coach of the German Rangnik, who left the post of head of sports and development at Lokomotiv Moscow in December. Eriksen suffered a cardiac arrest during the European Championship game between the national teams of Denmark and Finland on June 12, 2021. For several minutes, doctors provided first aid to the player, including chest compressions. Later, the Danish footballer underwent an operation to install a cardioverter-defibrillator. Because of this, the Dane, who played for Inter Milan, was banned from playing in Italy. In December, Inter and the player terminated the contract by mutual agreement of the parties. At the end of January, the Danish midfielder signed a contract with the English «Brentford».
