Manchester United have completed the signing of Denmark international Christian Eriksen on a three-year deal.
Eriksen had become a free agent following his short-term stay with Brentford, who were keen to keep hold of the playmaker.
Eriksen said: “Manchester United is a special club, and I cannot wait to get started.”
It marks a remarkable step for Eriksen, who was brought back to life on the pitch after suffering a cardiac arrest when playing for Denmark against Finland at the European Championship in June 2021.
