Speaking of a comeback, nobody did it as perfectly as the Danish superstar Christian Eriksen. A Denmark-Finland group tie in the 2020 UEFA Euro saw the star forward collapse because of a cardiac arrest and end his Euro campaign prematurely. Four years later, Eriksen scored Denmark’s first goal in the ongoing Euros during a draw against Slovenia. Eriksen’s longtime girlfriend Sabrina Kvist Jensen has been by his side during his days of struggle and his days of redemption. Well, Eriksen and Sabrina go way back.

The dynamic duo has been living together for more than a decade. Their courtship began before Eriksen broke through as a major figure in the English Premier League. Now, let’s explore more about Sabrina Kvist Jensen’s career and life with the Manchester United star.

Christian Eriksen and Sabrina Kvist Jensen have reportedly been together since 2012. Eriksen was plying his trade for the Dutch club Ajax at that time. Unlike most soccer couples, Eriksen and Sabrina lead a quieter life. Sabrina, interestingly, is not active on social media as well. Anyhow, various sources confirm that the Danish WAG is a trained hairdresser. After her education, she moved to England with Eriksen and worked for a clothing company.

Eriksen and Sabrina welcomed their son, Alfred in 2018. Alfred notably accompanied the Dane to the field during his farewell match for England’s Brentford. Good news came for Eriksen in 2021 after he recovered from the cardiac arrest. That year, he and Sabrina welcomed their daughter.
