The former England manager coached many of our former players with the national team, such as Gary and Phil Neville, Rio Ferdinand, David Beckham and many more.
Following the news, tributes poured in across the football world for the Sven, who was the first-ever foreign manager for the Three Lions.
We are deeply saddened that Sven-Göran Eriksson, who managed the #ThreeLions from 2001 to 2006, has passed away aged 76.
Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this time.
Rest in peace, Sven. You will be greatly missed ❤️ pic.twitter.com/aLtqWAG8K4
