Brentford midfielder Eriksen: Hopefully we'll soon just talk about football

Brentford midfielder Christian Eriksen is eager to get beyond last year's cardiac arrest.

Eriksen made a goalscoring return for Denmark in Saturday's friendly defeat to Holland.

He said, "Now I have become a football player again, so of course it must be normalised, but I am also sure that it will come with time.

"The more matches that are played, the less it is also talked about. I can also see that on the club team.

"You just have to get used to it, and people just need to know that it's really okay."
