The former coach of Lazio, but also of England, Sven Goran Erikson shocked public opinion with the statement that he has one year left to live as he is sick with cancer.
The 75-year-old has received many messages in the last few hours, from his former player, Wayne Rooney, and the former coach of Italy, Roberto Mancini.
" This is very sad news that I received this morning, all my thoughts are with Erikson and his family. Erikson is an excellent person and coach, loved and respected by all. We are all with him, I tell him not to give up and to keep fighting ," the former attacker wrote.
Such news has spread rapidly and Roberto Mancini has also reacted to it. The Saudi Arabian helmsman has worked with Eriksson at Sampdoria and Lazio in the past. Mancini emphasizes that Sven is one of the foreign players and is convinced that he will win this "match".
" Never a controversy from him and never banal, he always behaved with style. I don't know where he manages to find all this strength, he is fighting like a lion. Although he confirmed to me that his life is already limited.
He talks about a year, maybe even less, but I continue to hope and believe. Sven is an extraordinary man. Instead of me encouraging him, he is encouraging me.
He is not afraid of death. Strength Sven, you cannot and must not give up. You will win this match too ", concluded the former coach of Italy.
