Kane texted ex-Tottenham teammate Eriksen after 'dreadful' incident

Tottenham Hotspur star Harry Kane has revealed he has messaged Christian Eriksen after his cardiac arrest.

Inter Milan star Eriksen collapsed during Denmark's opening group game against Finland at Euro 2020.

He is now recovering in hospital in a stable condition.

Asked about his long-time Spurs teammate, Kane told ITV Sport: "I texted him but haven't got a response yet. Obviously I think he's undergoing some tests.

"My wife managed to speak to his wife and she said they're doing OK. They're going through checks and obviously it's a scary time for him and his family.

"It was dreadful to watch and I just wish him and his family all the best and hopefully he makes a speedy recovery."
