Christian Eriksen opens up about his return to the Premier League and reflects on his time at Manchester United—a journey he never thought he would make again.

Approaching the End at Old Trafford

At 33, Christian Eriksen appears to be approaching the final chapter of his Manchester United career. The creative midfielder, whose contract runs until the summer, is not expected to extend his stay at the iconic English club. Although nothing is confirmed yet, reports strongly suggest Eriksen will leave Old Trafford.

Reflecting on His Premier League Return

In an interview with Manchester United’s official website, Eriksen shares his experience of returning to the Premier League. The Danish international admits that playing in England again wasn’t something he had anticipated.

– When I left Spurs to go to Italy, I didn’t think I would return to the Premier League. It shows how quickly things can change in football, Eriksen said.

300 Premier League Appearances – A Remarkable Milestone

Eriksen recently reached an impressive milestone of 300 Premier League appearances, an achievement he has been awarded for. This milestone highlights his remarkable journey, especially considering the challenges he has faced.

Cardiac Arrest and the Road Back

Eriksen’s career took a dramatic turn during Euro 2021 when he suffered a cardiac arrest. Since then, he has played with an implanted defibrillator. Due to Serie A regulations, Eriksen could not continue with Inter, which led to his comeback in the Premier League with Brentford.

– I have made history for a ‘Danish guy’, Eriksen concluded.
