“He is fit but we will need to get him to match fit and I am looking forward to seeing him work with the players and staff to get back towards his highest level,” added coach Thomas.
The previous month the doctors suggested Eriksen the permission to play football again as the player’s return to football fields was doubtful.
Eriksen will be looking ahead to work with his new club Brentford and might also be thinking of playing for Denmark once again in the World Cup.
