Former England football manager Sven-Göran Eriksson has revealed he has terminal cancer.

The 75-year-old told Swedish radio he has around a year left to live in a “best case” scenario.

After managing clubs in his native Sweden and in Italy, Eriksson was appointed England’s first non-British manager in 2001.

He stood down from his most recent role at Swedish club Karlstad 11 months ago due to health issues.

Gareth Southgate resigns as England manager

Gareth Southgate has resigned as manager of the England men’s national football team after almost eight years at the helm. It comes just two days after England’s defeat to Spain in the final of Euro 2024. Despite that disappointment, Southgate has taken the Three Lions to two European Championship finals and a World Cup semi-final during his time in charge. Prince William, President of the Football Association (FA), tweeted his thanks to Southgate for his leadership. The FA says the process to appoint Southgate’s successor has begun, and they aim to have a new manager confirmed as soon as possible. Report by Jonesia.
