'What's up Christian? Do you want to come to Brentford?'. Bees boss Thomas Frank reveals how he first made contact with former star Tottenham star Christian Eriksen six months after his cardiac arrest playing for Denmark at the Euros

Brentford manager Thomas Frank reveals how a phone call to his old friend Christian Eriksen led to the Danish international signing for the Premier League club.

The 29-year-old has agreed a deal with the Bees until the end of the season as he looks to return competitive football after suffering a cardiac arrest while playing for Denmark at Euro 2020 last summer.

Eriksen's contract with Inter Milan was terminated in December due to Italian regulations preventing him from playing in Serie A as he is fitted with a defibrillator and has attracted plenty of interest since that.
