VfL Wolfsburg is actively working on the future of Christian Eriksen, who on 09 July 2026 continues his rehab in Denmark. The 34‑year‑old midfielder returns after a fresh collapse in the international match against Ukraine to an individual training program. The decision came after talks with managing director Dieter Hecking.
Eriksen has been a key playmaker since his signing, yet his health issues have heavily burdened the season. Wolfsburg maintains regular contact with the player and his doctors to ensure the best possible return. The club currently sits 16th in the Bundesliga with 29 points, 7 wins, 8 draws and 19 losses - a clear sign that every bit of experience counts.
The open situation around Eriksen keeps the squad plan flexible. While the team has 45 goals scored and 69 conceded, the question remains whether a replacement or reinforcement is needed to close the 60‑point gap to Bayern Munich. The last result - SC Paderborn 07 2‑1 VfL Wolfsburg on 25 May 2026 - showed the attacking firepower is still insufficient to avoid relegation danger.
Eriksen will follow an individual program in his home country, monitored by doctors in Copenhagen. Wolfsburg stays in close contact to plan his reintegration. If the rehab succeeds, he could be back in the squad for the summer; otherwise a transfer may be considered. The coming weeks will decide whether Wolfsburg continues with Eriksen or explores new options.
The recent form over the last five games reads LLDDW, with the last two matches lost. This trend highlights the urgency of resolving Eriksen's situation quickly to prevent further damage to the season.
