Sven-Goran Eriksson, the first foreign England national football team manager, passed away at 76 after a courageous battle with pancreatic cancer, surrounded by family.
Eriksson was known for coaching England's 'golden generation' of players, including Beckham, Gerrard, Rooney, and Lampard, leaving a significant legacy in football.
Reflecting on his illness, Eriksson expressed a will to fight against cancer, acknowledging the serious nature of his condition and the limited time he had left.
Leading out Liverpool Legends in a charity match at Anfield was a cherished moment for Eriksson, describing it as 'absolutely beautiful' and a 'huge memory'.
