Denmark Euro 2020 Squad Key Players
Christian Eriksen
One of the Premier League’s best attacking midfielders over the past decade, Eriksen is instrumental to Denamark’s Euro hopes. He was their highest scorer during the qualifiers and will shoulder much of team’s attacking responsibilities on his shoulders. Eriksen is a creative genius. He simplifies the game with his touch and vision on the pitch, setting up teammates with inch-perfect deliveries every time.
Kasper Schmeichel
The Leicester City captain is a vocal presence behind any team’s defence. His years of top-flight experience and leadership abilities could determine Denmark’s fate against top opposition. Kasper, just like his father and former Manchester United goalkeeper, Peter Schmeichel sets standards for his team in terms of commitment and effort. He will propel this Danish team forward, as we have seen him do it at club level with the Foxes.
