The Danish playmaker spent just under seven years in north London at Spurs, before upping sticks to Inter Milan in the January transfer window of 2020. 18 months later, Eriksen suffered a traumatic on-pitch cardiac arrest at Euro 2020 that jeopardised his entire football career.

It was an opportunity he seized with both hands as Eriksen was comfortably the Bees' best player from January onwards last term.
