    A second chance for Christian Eriksen

    A second chance for Christian Eriksen


    He's the footballer who collapsed with cardiac arrest during Denmark's Euro finals campaign last year.

    Eriksen's been offered the chance to make a comeback with Premier League club Brentford.

    The 29-year-old was released by Inter Milan - Italian regulations prevent players competing in Serie A with an implanted defibrillator.
