The player will be able to go home and in a month with Inter he will begin medical exams to see if he can return to play
We cannot exclude the possibility of seeing him on the pitch in Serie A, but to date we can say that the chances are reduced. In Italy it is not allowed to give the competitive qualification to those who have implanted a subcutaneous defibrillator that will be used to regulate cardiac arrhythmia. For Eriksen, however, there is also good news: on Saturday he will leave the Copenhagen hospital and will be able to return home.
Eriksen’s heart problem – In the statement, the Danish federation did not disclose any diagnosis. But everything suggests that myocarditis was the cause of the illness on the pitch in the match against Finland, an inflammation for which, however, according to the Danish doctors – and some international specialists they consulted – a drug treatment was not enough. Hence the choice of the defibrillator. In Italy it is not possible to continue playing with a defibrillator. In other countries, yes. As in the case of the Dutch Blind, on Thursday night on the pitch against Austria. Holland, as well as England, open up to this possibility. In Italy, according to the protocol of the Cocis (Cardiological organizing committee for sports fitness) updated in 2017, the hypothesis must be excluded: we cannot do a contact sport with a defibrillator attached to the heart.
In a month, Inter will start their exams on the player – In 4-5 weeks the player will undergo new tests, which will determine if the risk of arrhythmia is somehow correctable. Exams that Inter will have the player carry out in Milan, where the entire medical procedure dealt with in recent days at the Rigshospitalet will be repeated. If so, if
the problem proves to be temporary, the defibrillator would be removed. At that point, however, a long process would still open up to obtain a (not easy) suitability.
