Danish national team coach Brian Riemer has announced the squad for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Scotland and Greece, and 33-year-old midfielder Christian Eriksen is notably absent from the list. Eriksen, who currently doesn't have a club, was not among the selected players.

It's worth noting that Eriksen has been an integral part of Denmark's national team in the past, and his experience would have been valuable in these qualifying matches. However, Riemer's decision might be part of his strategy to assess and develop new talent within the team.

The Danish squad features a mix of experienced players and young talent, with notable inclusions from various European leagues. Denmark's upcoming fixtures include crucial World Cup qualifiers, and the team's performance will be closely watched.

Victor Jensen is set to make his debut for Denmark's senior national team, capitalizing on his impressive form with Utrecht. The 25-year-old attacking midfielder has scored eight goals in eight matches this season, including three in the Eredivisie and five in the Europa League qualifiers. His standout performance has earned him a spot in the Danish squad.

Denmark's upcoming fixtures include a home match against Scotland on September 5, followed by an away game against Greece three days later. Jensen's inclusion is likely due to Gustav Isaksen's absence, who is currently battling illness.
