Christian Eriksen has extended his support to Luton skipper Tom Lockyer, urging him to prioritize medical advice after suffering a cardiac arrest during the abandoned match against Bournemouth. Lockyer, who had a similar incident at Wembley in May, is stable in the hospital, undergoing tests. “I hope he’s OK, takes his time, is healthy and his family is there to support him,” said Eriksen, expressing concern for Lockyer’s well-being.
Eriksen, who experienced a cardiac arrest at Euro 2020, emphasized the importance of respecting doctors’ decisions.”My advice to him would be to make the best decision you can. If the doctors tell you to do something else then you’ve got to respect it and see what you can do,” advised Eriksen. He further stated, “There’s nothing that’s going to hold you back, but in the end, it all depends on how he’s feeling and what the doctors are saying.”
Lockyer, stable and responsive, collapsed during the game, prompting its abandonment. Luton manager Rob Edwards swiftly responded to the situation, and the BBC’s handling of the incident on Match of the Day received praise for its sensitivity. The match, officially abandoned soon after 5 pm, will be replayed in full at a later date. Gary Lineker, on Match of the Day, acknowledged the “traumatic day in the Premier League” and extended best wishes to Lockyer.
