Eriksen is stable and is going to undergo further tests to be able to figure out what happened to him. The Danish doctor also said that he does not believe it was a heart attack, which opens the possibility that he had suffered some other type of collapse. In the next few days the matter may be further clarified. The CEO of Inter, Giuseppe Marotta, also clarified that the player has not passed COVID nor has he been vaccinated, in response to some information that said that he could have suffered some consequence of the vaccination.
