The 27-year-old striker spoke about how he was personally affected by the near-tragedy that affected the Dane on Saturday, and he has been carefully following the situation of his friend as he hopes for a happy recovery.
Kane is set to start today has England hope to secure qualification for the knockout rounds with a win.
Kane’s words about watching Eriksen’s health emergency:
“It was difficult, of course, to see what happened. Luckily Christian is alive and seems to be fine, I haven’t had any contact with him, but my wife talked to his.”
“From what I understand,” he continued, “everything went well. Christian is in our heart, and in those of the whole family of football.”
Kane remarked on the situation, saying:
“It is a reminder of how quickly things can change in life, we should never take anything for granted. I hope that I can see him soon, at the end of the tournament.”
Asked about the possibility of dedicating a goal to the Nerazzurri midfielder, Kane stated:
“Dedicate a goal to him? First I have to score. We’ll see what happens. As I said, Christian is a good friend, the most important thing is that he knows we’re all thinking about him and he gets better day by day.”
