Aston Villa veteran Young delighted for Eriksen: My brother is back on the pitch

Aston Villa veteran Ashley Young has welcomed Christian Eriksen back to the Premier League.

The Dane made his debut for Brentford in Saturday's defeat to Villa.

Young and Eriksen won the Scudetto together for Inter Milan last season and the former posted to social media: "My brother is back on the pitch, what an amazing guy, person and friend.

"How nice to see you back on the pitch."

It was Eriksen's first competitive appearance since suffering a cardiac arrest at last summer's Euros.
