Christian Eriksen's Teammate: He Had Warned Us Such a Situation Was Possible

Wolfsburg teammate Patrick Wimmer revealed he was shocked, but not surprised, by Christian Eriksen's recent cardiac episode during a friendly against Ukraine on June 7th. "He had warned us. At Wolfsburg, we knew such a situation could occur at some point," stated Austrian international Wimmer to the "Krone" publication.

"I messaged him immediately and contacted people from the Wolfsburg staff. That's what's important right now," the footballer added, expressing relief over Eriksen's stable condition and improvement. "I'm fine and I'm home with my family. I want to reassure everyone: this situation is not like the one from 2021," the Dane wrote on his Instagram profile. "He's a fantastic footballer, an even better person, and above all, a father and family man. The most important thing for him right now is to find security and peace – both internally and externally," Patrick Wimmer concluded.
