I wonder how Christian Eriksen will feel when he hears the news.  He has already gone off injured today and now a player with a bad heart has dropped dead.

Dwamena recently had his permanent defibrillator removed as he thought it was the cause of his problems.

In 1974, he became the 6th player, out of 40 *, to play for both Inter and AC Milan.

Of those players, he’s the 5th to die.

 

* The website does talk about 38 players, but the article was made before the arrivals of Hakan Calhanoglu and Francesco Acerbi at Inter.

I believe he may have been selected for the 1974 World Cup but never played.

You’re right, he was in the Dutch squad for the 1974 WC, but was an unused substitute.

He was also in their squad for the 1976 Euro, this time playing Netherlands’ two games as they finished third.

He scored 2 goals in the 3rd place game.
