Let me phrase it better then. Return to top foptball.

Because top football is not existing in England, Germany, The Netherlands ect. and Daley Blind isnt a top footballer anymore but just a water boy for the Dutch national team :palm:

It's wonderful if Eriksen can continue his career. But I'd think VERY HARD with that decision. If the doctors say the risk is non-existent with the ICD, then I guess it's fine. If his career is over at Inter, then so be it, can't do anything about it. We just need to cope with it.

We need to understand the financial implications further, but if he's insured to his book value, that'll mean saving quite a bit of money this year on amortisation budget, and if insurance covers his salary (or at least the danish FA do which they have to by law up to 7.5m gross), it will actually help a lot with the reductions we were looking to do this year

I know thats morbid AF, but its the truth - it does free up some cash for replacements potentially.

I really doubt transfer fees (thus amortization costs) are insured. That sounds super expensive. As for the salary, I think UEFA is covering the salaries (to that 7.5m gross level) of players during their tournaments. And then the insurance plans come into the play.

My guess is we might have to take some hit from his amortization cost. At what level Eriksen can play (given his performance isn't affected by the ICD which I assume it won't) I think we can fetch some transfer fee. The salary, we probably need to pay him some golden handshake as there'd be still 3.5 years left of his fat contract.

Interesting times but it seems Eriksen is fine at least as a healthy human being which is the most important thing. Eriksen as a player, still up in the air, but hopefully he can continue playing. If so, too bad if he can't do that at Inter, would have been fascinating to see him play at Inzaghi's team.

Will he retire? If he doesn't, will he still play for Inter? If FIGC forbids him from playing in Italy again, will he play football somewhere else? Nothing is certain yet.

Would you guys like to see him play for Inter again? I just don't know man. I love Eriksen as a player, and as a person above all. I would love to see him at Inter for years to come. Pretty sure Inzaghi would love to him as a player too. But, I just don't know. Just can't bear too see what just happened to him happen again. Traumatic indeed. Whatever his choice is, or whatever the situation leads him to, whether he will still play for Inter or not, I would respect it. His health should be his priority and utmost concern now.

Can we claim insurance on Sensi while we’re at it?

Honestly, what is the chance that any doctor out there will sign his medical clearance, even if he passes all the tests? Who will take the risk being called a murderer if he collapses again?

We did, the insurer went out of business.

Do not know the law. But a ICD is not a Pacemaker in the stricted sense of the word. So it might be possible to play in Italy.

I dunno, I dont think the insurance costs will be that high. The probability of a player falling ill like this is maybe 1% at best? Realistically, <1%. Double it for a profit margin, and the premium on someone like Eriksen per season would be 500k a year. On our whole squad you might only be talking a few mil a year. Thats comparatively low.



The question for me would be what you insure against - its not clear. Book value is an obvious one, but it actually doesnt help the club mitigate it (because the loss is the market replacement value of the player), and doesnt cover cases of people who are from the youth team or bosman.




Realistically, if Eriksen wanted to move back to the Netherlands, I think it'd be on a free. No club is going to spend much money on him right now, and similarly, he cant fulfill his contractual obligation to play at Inter, so I think it'd be without a golden handshake either.


As mentioned, the question for me is if he continued playing, would it invalidate his insurance? I would assume so - e.g. why would anyone pay him when he's still able to do the same job? Blind is different because he was already in a country where he could continue to play when he had the medical issue

Latest FC Inter News suggests that its not clear if this device is temporary or permanent for Eriksen. If Permanent, he wont be able to play in Italy again.

LOL temporary!? Is that even possible? The doctors will fit him with the ICD as a prevention for it to happen again. You just don't remove the ICD again unless it is due to one of the scheduled battery changes every 5 to 8 years in which you install a new ICD unit but even then you keep the same wires in the arteries as removing them is a big risk for complication. I don't think FC Inter News knows much about this.

Some doctor in Italy says it's not important if there's a device or not when it comes can the player play in Italy or not. Important is why it is there. That will determine if the player can play in Italy or not.

Judging by whats happened so far, thankfully i don't think he suffered any damage to his brain or heart, an issue happened that made him go into cardiac arrest and his pulse had to be brought back so credit to the fast action of the medics and Kjaer.

I was optimistic then and i am more optimistic now that he will live a healthy life and potentially continue to play football, wether with Inter or another club because of the Italian laws.
