Eriksen not afraid to play with ICD implant in Premier League

Danish midfielder Christian Eriksen says he has no qualms about playing with a heart-starting device implant in a league as physical as the Premier League.

Eriksen, who collapsed during a European Championship match in Copenhagen last June and was given life-saving CPR treatment, is now fitted with a special heart-starting device known as an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD).

“I don’t really have any scared feelings about it, I don’t feel my ICD, so if it gets hit I know it is safe enough,” Eriksen told BBC Sport.
