Danish Football coach Thomas Frank has urged Christian Eriksen to stay with Brentford and ditch his plans of moving to Tottenham in the summer transfer. Eriksen was planning a shift to Tottenham by a request in January, it was months after he suffered a cardiac arrest while playing for Denmark in Euro 2020.
“I’m convinced there is a good chance he will wear a Brentford shirt (next season). I know I’m optimistic but I’m also the one who picked up the phone and asked him to come. He helped the team, we helped him back to his football life.”, Frank said ahead of their clash against Leeds.
Since the return of Eriksen, Brentford have only lost two of the matches in ten games in which the Danish star has played in.
“The way we play, our environment, and the role he is given, gives him an opportunity to flourish and play his best game. He enjoys going to work every day and I still think you can be extremely ambitious playing for us.”, Thomas Frank added
