The new Red Devil feels fortunate to see himself at the Theatre of Dreams after all that has happened not so long ago

Just a year after suffering a cardiac arrest for Denmark at Euro 2020, the ex-Spurs and Brentford midfielder Christian Eriksen signed for the Red Devils on a free transfer this month. The Dane has described Old Trafford as the 'perfect place' to make a debut, as he looks forward to his potential first appearance for Manchester United against Brighton on the opening day of the season.

During an interview for his new club's website, Eriksen revealed that the Theatre of Dreams was always a special place to visit whilst at his former clubs.

"[It's] the perfect place to do it, at Old Trafford. It will be fun to see the fans in stadium," he told the club website.

"The atmosphere in the stadium was very nice [when I played here previously]. It was a very, very good feeling and an impressive atmosphere.

"[Matches at Old Trafford have] always been very good. There have been some very tough games in between, but always good memories.

"It's always been very special to play at Old Trafford. In general, playing against such a big club like Manchester United, there's always something with it.

"Like I said, it's going to be weird being on the other side."

Still yet to make his first appearance since arriving at the club, Eriksen could feature in Man United's final two pre-season matches against Atletico Madrid and Rayo Vallecano this weekend.

In the Premier League, the Red Devils host Brighton on Sunday August 7 during the opening weekend of the season and return to Old Trafford two weeks later to face rivals Liverpool.
