Former England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson has said he has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and has a year to live in a “best-case scenario”.
The 75-year-old led England through the World Cup finals in 2002 and 2006, losing in the quarter-finals on both occasions.
In February last year, Eriksson stepped down from his role at Swedish club Karlstad due to “health issues”.
“Everyone can see that I have a disease that’s not good, and everyone supposes that it’s cancer, and it is. — Reuters
