Christian Eriksen Has Signed To Play With Brentford FC Just 7 Months After He Collapsed On The Field And Died For 5 Minutes

One of the most terrifying moments in sports history will apparently have a happy ending. 

Danish soccer star Christian Eriksen is officially back -- the midfielder has announced his return to the pitch just 7 months after suffering cardiac arrest during Euro 2020.

"Happy to announce that I've signed with Brentford Football Club," Eriksen said Monday via IG.

"I can't wait to get started and hopefully I'll see you all very soon."

Last June, the midfielder lost consciousness and fell to the ground during the first round of Denmark's UEFA European Championship match.

Medics gave him CPR on the field ... and he was carried off on a stretcher and transferred to a local hospital.

Absolutely incredible story to start the week with. This really was one of those moments, at least for me, that I remember where I was. It makes you realize that nothing is more important than your health and anyone, even the fittest athletes in the world, are vulnerable. I am so genuinely happy that Christian Eriksen has recovered to the point that he is not merely alive, but able to work and play the game he loves again. He is a JOY to watch and I am glad he landed at Brentford. Let's end with this because I think the only memory most Americans have of him is the collapse
